Description

Blackpool Council manages a large portfolio of properties and assets across Blackpool and in some cases outside of Blackpool. There is an on-going requirement to keep these properties well-maintained and to carry out repairs quickly, effectively and efficiently to keep them in good working order and in order to avoid costly remedial works in the future. In the first instance work may be allocated to Blackpool Coastal Housing, our arms-length management organisation. However, in many circumstances there is not the capacity or skills to deliver the service in this way. The successful contractor will act as a support to deliver effective repairs and maintenance skills in a timely manner covering the whole portfolio of property and assets.

Blackpool Council wishes to appoint a single contractor who can clearly demonstrate the ability to meet our requirements and who offers the most economically advantageous tender.

Please register an interest in this opportunity via the dedicated supplier portal (Proactis/The Chest - link is included below) to access the full specification of requirements along with the full suite of tender documentation.

It is anticipated that the contract term will be from 1st October 2021 to 30th September 2023 (2 year), with the option to extend for a period of 1 year (subject to contract review and budget availability).

It has been advised that TUPE will apply for the requirements of this service. Before any workforce information (including that relating to pensions) can be supplied Tenderers will be required to complete and return the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) issued with the Tender documents.
