II.1.4) Short description
Multiple Supplier Framework to deliver the design and build aspects of the Internal Works to Houses and flatted properties Framework. This involves work to renew and upgrade elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, electrical installations, joinery, partitions, floors coverings, decoration, and all associated making good. This framework is to have a duration of two years, with the potential for this to be extended by two further periods of one year, during which period a number of call-offs may be initiated. Interested parties are invited to submit completed SPDs that will allow Aberdeen City Council to select bidders to invite to the next stage. These SPD Instructions provide full details of the selection criteria applicable at this stage. Only those bidders who are short-listed as a result of the SPD evaluation process described in these instructions will be issued with an Invitation to Tender (ITT).
Aberdeen City Council intends to issue an ITT up to a maximum of SIX bidders.
Bidders should note that the estimated value below consists of the provisional budget allocated within the capital plan for all contractors.
The actual value per contractor will be expected to be a much smaller proportion following distribution of work amongst an anticipated 3no framework contractors, work carried out by direct in-house resources, contingency allowances, non-access to properties, efficiency savings, and subject to regular reviews and re-allocations of priorities by the Council.
The non-binding target is that each framework contractor would receive approximately GBP3-5Million of work turnover per year.
The framework contractors will also be required to perform to the council's key performance indicator targets, and community benefits expectations (described elsewhere)
