In plain English
Newcastle City Council wants to set up a list of approved contractors to carry out disability-friendly bathroom refurbishments and install minor accessibility equipment like handrails and grab rails in council properties. This is a framework agreement, meaning they'll call off work from approved suppliers over time rather than one single project.
What the buyer wants
• Supply and install fully accessible bathrooms meeting DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) standards in council-owned properties • Supply and install minor accessibility aids and adaptations including handrails, grab rails, access steps and similar equipment • Demonstrate you have the skills, experience and qualifications to do this work safely and to the required standard
Lots
- DDA Bathroom Adaptations
- Minor Aids and Adaptations
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
You will likely be disqualified if you have no proven experience installing accessible bathrooms or adaptations, cannot evidence public liability insurance of at least £6 million, or cannot demonstrate you understand DDA requirements and building regulations for accessibility work.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
