The impact of Covid-19 has accelerated home working which presents an opportunity to review how moves are managed within Oxfordshire County Council (OCC) and Cherwell Districted Council (CDC); more collaborative spaces whilst still supporting staff to continue working from home. When the Council moves into the collaborative smarter working model OCC will require the successful bidder to deliver a joined-up approach of Moves Management across the Council, under the broad categories of;
• Smooth delivery of all types of moves and relocations, inclusive of Schools;
• Efficient and green/sustainable disposal of furniture and waste;
• Resourceful management of moves and disposals projects that derive a service
outcome to generate customer satisfaction;
• Maximising the utilisation and value of the Council's 132 buildings (128 for OCC and
4 for CDC) throughout Oxfordshire, although not all will require moves.

For OCC: Generally there will be 1 or 2 large moves per annum and all rest will be smaller moves. most moves will be upto 1 day long. Suppliers are expected to manage all types of moves. Large moves will typically be 3 day long.

OCC and CDC are seeking same rate for two contracts. OCC and CDC will have two separate contracts. Same rates will apply to both contracts. Both contracts will be managed separately by OCC and CDC.

Contract duration will be 3 years with the option to extend for a period of upto 12 months in one or several extensions.
