Tender description

ENGIE on behalf of North East Lincolnshire Council are seeking suitably qualified contractors for the renewal of it's architectural works and asset management framework. The works to be carried out under this framework mainly focuses around repairs, maintenance and refurbishment of authority owned properties, leisure portfolio and schools/academies. The works under this lot will be both internal and external construction to buildings including site works, substructure, superstructure, internal construction and finishes, electrical, mechanical, and access systems. The top 7 contractors will be permitted to the framework. The participants will have access to opportunities via a mini competition. The architect works and assets framework is for works between the value of 0 GBP to 350 000 GBP. This framework provides the mechanism to allow mini competitions to be completed which identify a suitably competent contractor to deliver general building works, primarily associated to the authority's properties, leisure portfolio, and schools/academy's,. There will be no obligation for the authority to enter into call off contracts nor will any guarantee be given about minimum volumes of works or indeed through this Framework Agreement. Volumes are subject to change based on budgetary alteration outsides the authority's control. The 7 top scoring contractors will be permitted onto this framework. This framework is being awarded based on 100 % quality criteria. The authority wants to ensure that it permits the right quality of contractors to deliver the projects under this framework. Each project will be subject to a mini competition, where all 7 contractors will be invited to tender. Contractors will be issued with a bill of quantities which will be evaluated on 100 % price. However, there may be occasions when a 60 % price 40 % quality split may be used. The design engineer will do an initial assessment of the whole life cost of each project prior to the invitation to tender to enable a comparison between the assessment and bids received to ensure value for money. Once bids are evaluated, if the design engineer assesses that the tender is not proving value for money, the project will not be awarded and will be re-tendered. If at any time, during the lifetime of this framework, the framework is no longer proving value for money, the authority will reserve the right to terminate and re-procure.
