Information about options

Options: yes
Description of options:
At the end of the 4 year term of the framework, Community Housing reserve the right to extend the framework for a further 12 months. The purpose of the potential extension is to allow for the completion of related follow-on projects.
Where works are estimated to have a value that falls in the overlap value between Lots 1 and 2, the Authorised User has the option to procure through either Lot (i.e., to invite Framework Suppliers from either Lot 1 or Lot 2).
For Lots 1 to 4, where there is insufficient interest to an expression of interest for any potential call-off under a specific Lot, the Authorised User reserves the right to approach Framework Suppliers on the adjacent Lot. For example, if an expression of interest is placed under Lot 1 and there is insufficient interest expressed by Framework Suppliers within that Lot the Authorised User can then access Lot 2 as an alternative. The definition of “insufficient interest” will vary by Authorised User but will generally be defined as a minimum of three Suppliers expressing an interest for a mini-competition.

Additional information

The Contracting Authority reserves the right to cancel the procurement and not to proceed with all or any part of the Framework at any stage of the procurement process.
The Contracting Authority also reserves the right not to award the Framework.
Neither the Contracting Authority nor any person on whose behalf of whom this procurement is undertaken is to be liable for any costs incurred by those expressing an interest or Tendering for this Framework.
The Contracting Authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are Small or Medium Enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
The framework is to operate across the West Midlands and surrounding areas and will be open to all UK public sector bodies to access via an access Agreement between Community Housing (CH), the supplier and Pretium Frameworks Ltd, who Community Housing has appointed to administer the framework on its behalf. The framework will comprise of 13 lots as specified in the procurement and tender documents.
The framework will be open to but not limited to any "Authorised User", which is defined as follows:
• any entity within the same group of companies as Community Housing from time to time (a “Community Housing member”);
• any entity or joint venture company that Community Housing or any other Community Housing member holds an interest in from time to time (a “Community Housing JV”);
• any social housing provider in the united kingdom (excluding Community Housing, Community Housing members and Community Housing JVS);
• any supply chain member of any social housing provider in the united kingdom, including direct labour organisations and suppliers (excluding community housing, Community Housing members and Community Housing JVS);
• any national, regional or local health authority in the united kingdom including, without limitation, any NHS group, and any organisation providing a service to these bodies;
• any local or regional authority in the United Kingdom (including any arms length organisation or service provider working on their behalf) delivering any public or private sector construction related projects including, without limitation, housing, education, highways and infrastructure work;
• any other “Contracting Authority” in the UK as defined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015; and
• any service provider delivering services to any other Government Agency in the United Kingdom including, without limitation, the Ministry of Defence and the Highways Agency.
For Lots 1 and 2, where works are estimated to have a value that falls in the overlap value between Lots 1 and 2, the Authorised User has the option to procure through either Lot (i.e., to invite Framework Suppliers from either Lot 1 or Lot 2).
For Lots 1 to 4, where there is insufficient interest to an expression of interest for any potential call-off under a specific Lot, the Authorised User reserves the right to approach Framework Suppliers on the adjacent Lot. For example, if an expression of interest is placed under Lot 1 and there is insufficient interest expressed by Framework Suppliers within that Lot the Authorised User can then access Lot 2 as an alternative. The definition of “insufficient interest” will vary by Authorised User but will generally be defined as a minimum of three Suppliers expressing an interest for a mini-competition.
