Summary of the contracting process

The Sanctuary Housing Association is currently in the tender stage for a public procurement process titled "Responsive Repairs and Planned Maintenance 2024 - PIN." This comprehensive procurement initiative addresses repair and maintenance services within the "Repair and maintenance services of building installations" industry category. The project covers various tenanted properties, care homes, student accommodations, and supported living facilities across England and Scotland. Bids are expected to be sought from 28th October 2024, and interested suppliers must be successfully onboarded to the CCS Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) by 10th October 2024. The anticipated initial contract period is for three years, with the potential for two additional 12-month extensions.

This tender offers significant opportunities for suppliers specialising in diverse maintenance and repair services. With an estimated annual value exceeding £50 million and the possibility of being divided into smaller geographical lots, the project is suitable for generalist suppliers capable of subcontracting specific tasks. Businesses experienced in building maintenance, emergency repairs, void property works, and managing damp and mould issues would find this tender particularly lucrative. Additionally, registration on the CCS DPS, along with obtaining Cyber Essentials accreditation, is essential for participation, ensuring that only qualified and compliant suppliers are considered. This procurement process not only encourages competitive pricing but also fosters business growth by allowing suppliers to apply their expertise across a large, impactful project.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK Works Orders issued under the Contract will be in four main categories, these being: * Responsive Repairs * Voids * Damp & Mould * Disrepair Responsive Repairs These are split into two areas: Day to Day Responsive Repairs including Emergency Work arising during the normal working hours of the day: "Day to Day Responsive Repairs" shall mean any responsive day to day repairs and maintenance work (including Emergency Work executed during normal working hours) ordered in accordance with the provisions of the Contract and arising during normal working hours from a customer notifying Sanctuary of an issue. Normal working hours are defined as Monday to Friday, 8.00 to 18.00 hours. It is proposed that there will be a KPI to measure either the suppliers average time to complete or the percentage of works completed within target timescale. "Emergency Work" shall mean Work that is required by its very nature to be undertaken immediately to safeguard the well-being of tenants and/ or occupiers, the structural stability and integrity of the Property, the health and safety of the general public and works of a similar nature, and which arise during the Client's normal working hours. There will be response times in the contract for emergency attendance. Overall, emergencies currently account for approximately 20% of all responsive calls received from customers. Out of Hours Emergency Service including Out of Hours Emergency Work "Out of Hours Emergency Service" shall mean the receipt by the appointed Service Provider of notifications from Sanctuary's Customer Contact Hub emergency call handling service of repair requests received outside of normal working hours and the undertaking of Out of Hours Emergency Work. "Out of Hours Emergency Work" shall mean Emergency Work as defined above, that is required to be undertaken outside of Sanctuary's normal working hours as indicated in Contract Details. There will be response times in the contract for emergency attendance. It is expected for out of hours notifications beyond 6pm of an evening that the remit for the supplier will be limited to either isolating services or making safe as appropriate, and for the full repair works to carried out during normal working hours (unless they are of a minor nature and can be resolved at the first visit). Voids property Works "Void Property Works" shall mean any repairs, renewals, reinstatement, replacement, internal redecoration, upgrading, cleaning and clearing out ordered in accordance with the provisions of the Contract arising as a result of a change of tenancy. Sanctuary will carry out a "Void Property Inspections". This means inspections the Void Property to establish what works are required. Once scoped and priced the work would then be passed to the Supplier to complete with a target completion date. In addition they would take digital photographs at time of inspection, read meters and forward anything else required to confirm the works required. Damp & Mould Works "Damp & Mould Works" covers a range of scenarios, whose end result is that the property doesn't perform how it should and results in the presence of damp and or mould. These works may be identified via a "Responsive Repair", "Void Property Works" or a "Disrepair Case". Sanctuary have separated these types of works as they are required to report them to the Regulator of Social Housing. The works may range from the early identification of an issue and the works are therefore preventative (clearing blocked gutters to avoid water overflow), through to the resolution of damp and mould which is evident in a property and needs to be treated (either directly, or indirectly as a consequence). Disrepair Cases (England Only) "Disrepair Cases" are those properties where Sanctuary has failed on their repair obligations required in the tenancy agreement with the customer. They can take two types:- "Disrepair". Where either the customer reports the issue to Sanctuary or Sanctuary identify the case during a visit or inspection of the property. Usually, Sanctuary will send somebody to inspect the property and identify what works are required. Once scoped, the supplier would be issued with that scope to carry out and report back when completed. "Legal Disrepair". Very similar to the above but the customer has progressed the matter using a legal process, and the disrepair claim is a formal matter. Both parties need to agree the scope, and once agreed there are usually strict timescales to adhere to in completing the work. These would be set out to the supplier, and the supplier would need to regularly update Sanctuary with progress, especially if any issues or delays arise during the works. Further information in respect of specific services and requirements are detailed in the attached Housing Federation Schedule of Rates Specification document. LOTS AND REGIONS It is envisaged that the contract will be divided into 18 regions/lots as follows, with a minimum two contractors being awarded each lot. The amount of anticipated work is indicated as a guide only based on current volumes. There will be no minimum guarantee of work under this contract.
