The Authority is seeking expressions of interest from suitably interested and qualified Service Providers who can undertake either surveying, sampling and analysis and/or removal of asbestos to domestic and communal areas (which may included both occupied and void properties) to the relevant current British Standards at the time of drawdown. The tender is for a position on a framework under which it envisages that contracts will be let to Service Providers within the framework for the provision of all or part of these services and the like to social dwellings, sheltered schemes, supported and special needs properties and potentially, commercial properties in the Client's ownership or managed by the individual members (including future members) of the Procurement For All consortium (under a series of partnering contracts).
Procurement For All is a growing consortium of Registered Providers with housing stock distributed across England and Wales. Each member may subsequently tender through a mini competition between the framework Providers and enter into individual contracts with successful contractors on a geographical basis for a period of up to 4 years subject to annual performance review. The Providers will be required to provide a customer focused service and show a commitment to providing an effective service that provides value for money to the employers and their customers whether tenants or leaseholders. The employers will require the Providers to cooperate with them in working towards a partnership approach in providing a service to the Employer's contracts. The Authority and its present and future members reserves the right to withdraw from this procurement procedure at any time. Bidders are responsible for the costs and expenses they incur as a result of participating in this procurement procedure.
