Stevenage Borough Council is seeking suitable Suppliers for THE PROVISION OF HOUSING RESPONSIVE MAINTENANCE AND VOIDS PROPERTY WORKS via a tender with multiple lots. It is anticipated that the contracts will commence on 25th March 2025 for the non-Section 20 Lots and 25th April 2025 for the Section 20 LotsScope:• Lot 1: Voids (Non-Section 20): To provide the full range of internal refurbishment and associated repairs previously identified as being required in order to return temporarily empty properties (otherwise known as ‘Voids’) to a suitable letting standard. To further undertake refurbishment and repairs previously identified as being required to external fixtures. Any wholesale replacement of elements (Major Component Renewals) will generally be covered by existing planned maintenance contracts however they will be required under this contract if it is deemed necessary by the client for these works to be carried out to the property whilst at the void stage. Major Component Renewals will relate to kitchen and bathrooms and associated works. These works will be classified as a ‘Major Void’ for timescale purposes and will incorporate Major Component Renewal rates.It is the council’s intention to transition a significant portion of this work in-house beginning in the second year of the contract. This approach reflects the council's commitment to developing internal capacity, enhancing control over quality, and optimising long-term value for money. The Client intends to enter into a single Contract for each lot (with the exception of Voids which will be two contracts)The estimated total value of the (combined lots of) Contract is stated in II.1.5) of this notice and is for the term 3 years plus up to a further 2 years. There will be no form of exclusivity or volume that is guaranteed under the Contract Agreement. The contract values may flex appropriately as required by the Council to suit the Council’s need for support during the term. The scope of work for each lot will cover a range of building and maintenance trades to complete high quality repairs to Council owned domestic properties as normally carried out by the in-house Repairs and Voids teams. The council reserves the right to carry out in house any repair type/trade that is the same or similar to the works being done under the contracts if it feels it will generate better value for community it serves and as such this is likely to reduce the level of external contractor support needed.The Contracts will be let on an "all-inclusive" basis incorporating the National Housing Federation Schedule of Rates.
