Description

DWP is looking to put in place prior to 01.04.18 a new Estates Contractor Framework providing Minor Works & Capital Projects together with all ancillary & incidental works and/or services to cater for DWP's estate, and to be made available to other Government Departments & Public Sector bodies who have a similar estate type & profile of project requirements as DWP's (detailed further in VI.3). The framework will support DWP's Estate of a national network of Job Centre Plus Offices, which are similar in nature to a retail shop with 'over the counter'style service provision. DWP also have a number of regional Corporate Centre offices requiring periodic works of refurbishment & renewal. DWP are coming to the end of a 20 year PFI contract (the PRIME Contract) which delivered Business As Usual Minor Works & Estate Change Capital Works. By the end of the PRIME contract, it is anticipated that DWP will continue to have a national network of over 700 properties across England,Scotland & Wales.
