II.2.4) Description of the procurement

Efficiency East Midlands (EEM) conducted this tender exercise on behalf of our membership to establish a void property services framework to support members with the provision of a responsive void property management service.

Lot 3 is to encapsulate work streams from lot 1 and lot 2, into a total void property services management solution, including but not limited to the below services:

• out of hours call handling facility;

• vacant property inspections, inventory, and condition reporting;

• water system drain down;

• utility turn off and reinstatement;

• pest control services;

• safe return to work solutions;

• any other services associated with void property management services.

It is intended that contracting authorities will utilise lot 3 where multiple services are required and where contracting authorities would like one contractor to manage all their void property requirements under one contract. Through this lot EEM are trying to provide contracting authorities a full turnkey approach to their void property management (minus any repairs and maintenance), ensuring a smooth and efficient service to meet their individual turnaround times.
