Quantity or Scope of the Contract

II.2.1)

Total quantity or scope

Based on a spend analysis of a selection of current CHIC members, it is established that the legal spend per annum equates to an average of £55 per unit of housing stock. This procurement process seeks to establish a framework arrangement that is potentially available to a large number of social housing providers, and as it is a new arrangement it is difficult to predict the level of use with any certainty. To assist Organisations in determining whether to apply for this opportunity, the potential level of interest based on the number of units and potential use by those eligible to use the frameworks has been estimated using different scenarios shown in the PQQ document.

The potential spend on the framework agreement established through this procurement process has the potential to reach £70 milllion over the life of the framework.
