Description

The purpose of this tender is to set up a frame work of suppliers for its Mechanical and Electrical Services / applicable to various residential and commercial installations, with a view to awarding a primary (preferred) provider for each lot (1 -3) and up to 8 x (times) ranked contingent suppliers in support of each Lot. With the exception of Lot 4 which will have a preferred provider and 1 contingent.
The Lots remain:
LOT 1 - DOMESTIC GAS SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE AND ASSOCIATED WORKS
LOT 2 - DOMESTIC BOILER REPLACEMENT
LOT 3 - COMMUNAL BOILER SERVICING, INSTALLATION AND ASSOCIATED WORKS
LOT 4 - WATER TREATMENT SERVICES AND ASSOCIATED WORKS
All quantities and indicated spend in pricing document are annual indicative quantities and spend based upon the previous 3 years. The Councils financial year runs from April to March, with an exemption period from April till the 1st October 2022. Some work has already have been ordered for the 2022-23 program so volumes will be lower this year. There are also no guaranteed volumes for all requirements on this contract at any time.
In addition to the standard Lots detailed within this tender, there may also be the requirement for ad-hoc projects to be completed. It is the council's intention to utilise all winning providers (Primary and contingent for each lot) for further competition / mini bid competitions in this instance.
The winner ranked 1 (preferred or primary) provider of each lot will be the call off contractor for all reactive and associated projects for that lot, in the instance where so many contingents could be utilised, in its evaluation of bids the Council reserves the right to limit the awards at a bid step. Social value with less than a minimum score of 3 will be excluded from the award ranking calculation.
Where the primary provider does not have capacity or ability to complete the works, the council will call on the remaining contingent providers for that specific lot, in order of award, to complete the works required. Where the primary provider continues to decline work offered then after 3 declines they will get down ranked to position 3.
When larger projects (above £75k) are required a minimum of three providers /contractors will be asked to tender as a mini bid for that specific project.
The volume of work awarded to any contractor cannot be guaranteed at any stage of the contract as this will depend on the availability of BTS Services existing labour and available budgets to fund each required work stream. BTS (Client Division) manages the call -off work, and offer of any requirements in the first instances to BTS (Services Division)
There is the opportunity for bidders to bid on one or all Lots within this tender and will be awarded based on the
