2425-0477: Void Reservicing, Refurbishment, and New Tenancy Repair Works
Main contract details
The requirement
The Council seeks to procure four contractors to deliver void reservicing, refurbishment, and new tenancy repairs to the Council’s void properties.
The contracts are needed for the delivery of reservicing to vacant council (void) properties, and the refurbishment of major works voids, ensuring they are let in a timely manner and to a high-quality standard. This will also extend to include required repairs within the first eight weeks of a new tenancy (works in occupation).
The contracts to be procured will also include void reservicing and refurbishment for properties used for temporary accommodation. This includes Buy-Backs (where the Council repurchases homes previously sold under ‘Right to Buy’), General Needs Temporary Accommodation (GNTA), and other temporary accommodation projects (e.g. Afghan Refugee Project, Rough Sleepers). The council is required to provide white goods and furnishings for void properties that fall under these schemes, therefore the contract will also extend to cover such.
Contract period
The duration of the contracts will be for an initial period of 24 months from an estimated start date of November 2025, with an option to extend by a further 24 months. Should the contracts be extended, the maximum total contracts will be for a period of forty-eight months (four years).
Value of the contract or framework agreement
The estimated total value of these contracts is £28,000,000 over the maximum forty-eight (48) months. This is based on £7,000,000 per annum. However, the council is confident the bids received will be lower than the estimated value.
Award criteria
The contract(s) will be awarded to the Most Advantageous Tender(s) (MAT) in accordance with
the Procurement Act 2023.
