Builders' joinery

Description

LHC as a not for profit public sector procurement organisation providing procurement services to Contracting Authorities throughout Scotland as described on SPA's Buyer Profile (www.scottishprocurement.scot/24) for the supply and installation of high quality windows and external doorsets suitable for use in public sector housing and non-housing buildings on a regionalised Lot basis depending on workstream. The framework is tendered initially under 2 workstreams; Timber windows and doorsets (WD1-T4) and PVC-U windows and doorsets (WD1-U10). Companies were encouraged to tender to service one or more workstreams in one or more Lots. SPA returns surplus Levy income to it's clients to support social value initiatives in the local communities they serve. Lots 1 to 7 for England/Wales are covered under separate Contract Award Notices. All interested companies were required to demonstrate capability in managing the design, supply, delivery and installation of window and doorset products that conform to minimum specified standards of manufacture, performance and security in connection with refurbishment or new-build public sector projects as set out in the tender documents. Companies were encouraged to tender for one or more workstream and were not competitively disadvantaged either way when the bids were evaluated. However it is our hope that companies applying for multiple workstreams enjoyed a streamlined process. Companies tendering for a workstream not of their primary product were able to source suitable products from a declared third party supplier. Separate Contract Award Notices are published for Wales on behalf of the Welsh Procurement Alliance and England by LHC.
