Winchester City Council (the council) has a robust asset management plan and is committed to maintaining it’s housing stock in line with the national housing quality and decent homes standards and relevant legislation.

The council is responsible for c.5,000 properties across the Winchester district and has formulated a 30 year maintenance and replacement programme which identifies roofing replacement works and due dates and the Council has engaged external contractors to undertake the works.

The council has appointed a maximum of six contractors to provide roof replacement works throughout the year across the District of Winchester via this framework agreement.

The framework is established for use by Winchester City Council only. It is envisaged circa 250 roofs p.a may be replaced across Winchester’s administrative district issuing work orders for roof replacement works although no guarantees can be given regarding anticipated volumes.

The contract area will cover Winchester, Alresford, Bishops Waltham, Denmead, Whiteley and Wickham and rural areas and villages surrounding these settlements. It encompasses an area of around 250 square miles

It was envisaged that the framework would be divided into two lots and applicants applied for one lot only and tender for work packages issued by the council based on two value bands; Lot 1 for work estimated to be <£250k and Lot 2 for work packages estimated to be ≥£250k.

However, due to insufficient applicants for the council to operate the two separate Lots successfully and as set out in the tender documents the council is to operate the framework with a single Lot and any direct call – offs of a work package will be offered regardless of value in accordance with “Schedule 5 Tasks” of the Framework Agreement or via a mini competition.

The Framework Agreement will operate through a modified JCT Framework 2016 edition (as the main contract) with Work Packages or Orders being procured using Minor Works Building Contract 2016 or variation of with supplemental terms and conditions.
