Decoration & Minor Pre-decoration Repairs Framework 2024

Description

Hampshire County Council (the Council) is looking to establish a Decorations and Minor Pre-decoration Repairs Framework for various works delivered via a multi-lot, multi-contractor Framework Agreement that caters for Hampshire County Council (schools and non-education) and other named authorities. Hampshire County Council's Property Services manage and maintain a large portfolio of properties on behalf of Hampshire County Council (HCC). Within this portfolio of properties, other directorates provide key services to the residents of Hampshire. It is essential that the buildings remain operational, to support the delivery of these services, and provide a safe and functional environment for the users and visitors. As part of its maintenance programme, the Council undertakes external re-decorations of the built estate. Pre-decoration repairs will encompass repair or renewal of any element of the building which, if left unattended, would result in the premature deterioration of the decorative coating or of the building fabric itself. Work will fall under the following general headings: • Joinery • Glazing • Rain water disposal goods • Pointing • Rendering • Applied finishes • Clearing flat roofs, including gullies and outlets of debris • Washdowns of buildings The scope of the framework will include a variety of individual projects and programmes of external and internal decoration works and pre-decoration repairs including the use of fixed scaffolding and mobile access systems, associated glazing, guttering and joinery repairs and washdowns to buildings and structures as directed. Lot 1: Individual / simple projects and/or programmes of decoration and repair work up to the value of £75K • Lot 1 - Individual projects up to the value of £75K (typically the projects will be low value internal decoration works with a fast turnaround period expected); established with 4 contractors. The Council will primarily look to award works on a rotational basis, though will retain the option to run a mini-competition. The rotational award system will look to reduce the administrative process for the Council and contractors with the associated tendering costs and increased speed of award, whilst securing pricing based around the National Schedule of Rates to allow for clear and transparent pricing when developing the project requirements. The rotational system will allow for work to be shared amongst contractors to ensure a suitable capacity to undertake ongoing works. Contractors will be assessed against set Key Performance Indicators in the delivery of any project. Contractors need to ensure these KPI's are delivered to satisfactory levels or this could result in subsequently missing a rotation in the next award schedule. Lot 2: Complex individual projects and/or programmes of decoration and repair work above £75K Lot 2 - Complex individual projects and/or programmes of work above £75K with no maximum project limit established with 6 to 7 contractors The Council will primarily look to award works on a rotational basis, though will retain the option to run a mini-competition.
