Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Believe Housing, a housing association, wants to appoint contractors to a framework (a pre-approved list of suppliers that can be called on for work over a set period) to carry out repairs and maintenance on its homes. The estimated total value is £16,000,000, split across 17 separate lots covering different trades.

What the buyer wants

• Contractors to carry out repair and maintenance work in one or more of the 17 lots, such as scaffolding, drainage, windows and doors, fencing, roofing and metalwork, pest control, flooring, and ramps • Contractors to carry out specialist work including water mains replacement, aerial re-siting, specialist defect and remedial works, and specialist structural surveys • Contractors to be available to take on work as and when Believe Housing requires it across the lots they are appointed to

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice text does not set out specific qualification requirements, but the £16,000,000 estimated value spread across 17 lots suggests the framework is aimed at established contractors able to take on large volumes of work across several trades, so a small business would most likely need to focus on one or two lots that match its skills.

Always check the tender documents.

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.
