BHSCT Framework for Building Maintenance and Minor Building Works

Tender description

The Contracting Authority wishes to establish four single-operator frameworks based on defined sectors in the Belfast region. The frameworks will cover Building Maintenance Works and Minor Building Works which may incorporate Mechanical and Electrical Building Services, Civil Engineering, Roofing, Flooring, Windows, Painting, Glazing Works and other related specialist works. In addition to the four Economic Operators appointed to four sectors, a fifth operator will be appointed as a Reserve Economic Operator. Economic Operators should note that the Contracting Authority shall also seek to appoint separate Framework Agreements with Electrical and Mechanical Economic Operators. It shall be a condition of the Framework Agreement that Economic Operators shall have resources available to address any works required 24 hours per day and 365 days per year (including all weekends and all holiday periods). For the purposes of the Framework Agreement works are defined as any Building Maintenance Works or Minor Building Works scheme with a cost of between £5.00 and £100,000.00. Minor Building Works schemes may comprise new buildings, extensions to existing buildings, conversion/refurbishment of existing buildings, works to ensure compliance with various legislative requirements, e.g. legionella, fire safety, DDA, asbestos regulations, mechanical and electrical engineering works and enabling works in advance of major capital works schemes.
