In plain English
Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council is hiring a small group of contractors to carry out housing repairs during the handover from its current repairs contract to a new one. The work is split into seven separate lots covering small responsive repairs, void works (repairs to empty homes), small works from £1,500 to £25,000, disrepair, damp, structural and fencing works, with an estimated total value of £2,500,000.
What the buyer wants
• Bid for at least one of the seven lots: small responsive repairs, void works, small works (£1,500 to £25,000), disrepair works, damp works, structural works, or fencing planned works • Support the council while the current housing repairs contract winds down and the replacement contract starts up • Be located in, or have an operational base in, the East of England and within 30 miles of the edge of the Borough of Welwyn Hatfield
Lots
- Lot 1 - Small responsive repairs
- Lot 2 - Void works
- Lot 3 - Small works – i.e. works from £1,500 to £25,000
- Lot 4 - Disrepair works
- Lot 5 - Damp works
- Lot 6 - Structural works
- Lot 7 - Fencing planned works
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: Any business without a base in the East of England within 30 miles of the Borough of Welwyn Hatfield would be ruled out, and with only one to three contractors appointed per lot, competition for each lot will be tight.
Always check the tender documents.
