Repairs & Maintenance and Planned Works Services Framework

Description

CDS Co-operatives is a charitable community benefit society first established in 1975 to support the development of new housing co-ops. Our core purpose is to provide, support and promote co-op and community-led housing - so that more people can shape the things that matter to them - at home, in their neighbourhood or community. We truly value our cooperative roots, and we are committed to supporting cooperation as an effective business model and as a set of valuable skills. As part of our ongoing efforts to support the co-op and community-led housing sector, we have procured a managing agent for Frameworks designed to deliver flexible, technology-enabled repairs, maintenance, consultancy and major works services to us and other similar organisations. Our managing agent, Plentific, is a UK-based property technology company that will use its platform to manage this Framework, ensuring Contracting Authorities are able to access the services offered by Suppliers admitted to the Framework. Services delivered by this Framework will be to domestic and commercial properties. Domestic properties will typically consist of a mixture of domestic housing sites but not limited to bungalows, blocks of flats, and co-operative housing schemes and any other building owned and/or managed by our Framework contracting agent. Commercial properties will include but not be limited to business units, office buildings and community centres. The Framework comprises four lots, with Contracting Authorities being able to source services from Suppliers by becoming users of the Plentific platform. The total value of this Open Framework is estimated to be £10,000,000,000 excluding VAT and £12,000,000,000 including VAT. Contracts to be awarded under this Notice are SOLELY FOR LOT 1. UK4 Tender Notices for lots 2, 3 and 4 are estimated to be published from December 2027. Suppliers will be able to apply for admission to the framework at regular intervals. Contracting Authorities will be able to appoint Suppliers through direct award or mini-competition tender process. No framework has been previously awarded under the Open Framework. Services under Lot 1 will be delivered through the Plentific platform, managed by Plentific Ltd as Managing Agent on behalf of the Contracting Authorities. Contracting Authorities wishing to access the framework will do so by registering as users of the Plentific platform. Suppliers will be admitted to the framework at regular intervals following re-opening of the open framework in accordance with its terms. Once admitted, suppliers will be appointed for specific work orders / work packages by individual Contracting Authorities either by direct award or through a mini-competition tender process conducted via the platform. ## Contract award Title: Repairs & Maintenance and Planned Works Lots: - Lot 1: Repairs & Maintenance and Planned Works ## Contract award Lots: - Lot 2: Professional Services - Lot 3: Technology & Digital Solutions - Lot 4: Materials
