Notice Title

Technical Assurance Framework EWS1 Audits

Notice Description

DLUHC is supporting building owners in taking immediate steps to ensure their residents' safety and in making decisions on any remedial work that is necessary. This framework is for provision of building safety professionals to audit samples of External Wall Assessment (EWS1) forms. This specialist resource is not available within government to execute these audits. Individual contracts (call-offs) awarded under this Framework Agreement (Lots 1 and 2) will be governed by the same terms and conditions as the Framework with specific instructions set out in the call-off work instruction. For both Lots 1 and 2, the Authority will use the following mechanisms to allocate (commission) work: a) Direct Award for prompt, regular, simple commissioning of Audits, allocating call-offs such that the total annual value of Work Orders offered to each Audit Provider is proportionate to the annual value of audits offered b) Mini-Competition: the Authority may seek to compete potential larger call-offs i.e. where the work instruction is estimated to represent more than 20% of the annual estimated value of Lots 1 or 2
