Tender description

I-Flair is a consortium of housing associations in East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde and Renfrewshire. The current members of I-Flair are Arklet, Barrhead, Bridgewater, Cloch, Linstone, Oak Tree, Paisley South and Williamsburgh Housing Associations. Other organisations may join at a later date. I-Flair has procured a 4 Year Property Maintenance Framework Agreement and the requirements will primarily be delivered across East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde and Renfrewshire. The following organisations shall be entitled to utilise the Framework Agreement, as and when required: 1. I-Flair members, both current and future; 2. I-Flair partners, being other social landlords registered with the Scottish Housing Regulator. It is envisaged that the overall framework requirements shall be delivered primarily within East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde and Renfrewshire. Individual projects are likely to range from 5 000 GBP to 2 000 000 GBP and specific contracts will be awarded by applying the terms laid down in the Framework Agreement without re-opening competition or, where not all terms of the proposed contract are laid down in the Framework Agreement, re-opening competition between economic operators which are party to the Framework Agreement and which are capable of performing the proposed contract. Notwithstanding the above under the Framework Agreement, none of the organisations that are entitled to use the Framework Agreement shall be under any obligation to do so with framework partners. I-Flair members take their social responsibility very seriously and are committed to delivering Community Benefits through the Property Maintenance Framework Agreement 2016-2020. Successful Tenderers, and their supply chain, will support I-Flair's aspirations and requirements relating to skills development, training and employment initiatives and other opportunities which connect to social economic and environmental considerations.
