Minor Works

LHC is reviewing the potential need for a minor works framework.

The provision of minor works for complete refurbishment projects for public sector organisations in 6 (or more) regional lots throughout England, Scotland and Wales including, but not limited to the following trades:

— complete kitchens/bathrooms,

— windows/external doors,

— internal doors,

— flat or pitched roofing,

— brickwork replacement,

— concrete repairs,

— painting/decorating (internal/external),

— disability adaptations,

— electrical rewires and testing,

— emergency lighting,

— plumbing/heating system renewal,

— above ground drainage surveys/replacement,

— fencing and gates (metal/timber),

— grounds maintenance.

We are interested in early supplier engagement with suppliers and buyers who have experience in successfully managing minor works packages.

Individual, multi site, regional and national.

This will suit suppliers who have a multi-disciplined workforce, however, we are interested in the specialist who undertakes one or more the tasks:

LHC is currently undergoing market analysis for the potential procurement for MW1. As such, LHC would appreciate if you could support this analysis by answering a few questions, we would also like to receive details of the type of work you undertake by completing the following survey https//:www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/LHCMW1

We invite suppliers, in the first instance, to register your interest at our partnering tender site Procontract -https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=d948dbb5-c71f-e911-80f2-005056b64545&p=8b355dc0-f604-e711-80dd-005056b64545

The framework will be tendered under 3 Contract Notices, in England by LHC, in Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Procurement Alliance, and in Wales on behalf of the Welsh Procurement Alliance. Each Contract Notice area may be subdivided into regional lots.

As of the date of publication of this notice all Contracting Authorities may use our frameworks as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations (Scotland) 2015 and as listed on www.scottishprocurement.scot/24 and at present include Registered Social Landlords (RSLs), Tenant Management Organisations (TMOs) and Arm’s Length Management Organisations (ALMOs), local authorities.

LHC frameworks have been used by more than 700 Contracting Authorities, for whom we continue to monitor up to 500 live projects at any one time. Thanks to their ongoing and collective input and feedback, and given the reach and scale of their collective' portfolios, the framework is both designed and anticipated to support the vast majority of requirements. Consequently, other Contracting Authorities that were not specifically consulted in the development of this framework may nevertheless also deem the framework to offer a value for money procurement solution for their requirements, and may also use the framework.

As of the date of publication of this notice all Contracting Authorities may use our frameworks as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the Public Contracts Regulations (Scotland) 2015 and as listed on www.lhc.gov.uk/24, www.scottishprocurement.scot/24 and www.welshprocurement.cymru/24 and at present include Registered Social Landlords (RSLs), Tenant Management Organisations (TMOs) and Arm’s Length Management Organisations (ALMOs), local authorities and any subsidiaries and joint-venture vehicles of those local authorities, health authorities, Councils, Boards and Trusts, publicly funded schools, universities and further education establishments, colleges, police forces, fire and rescue services or registered charities.

This LHC Framework is one of a range of specialist building frameworks designed by LHC for use by social landlords and other public sector bodies seeking efficient, quality, locally sustainable procurement solutions in accordance with public sector procurement rules and regulations.
