Planning Information

We are looking to re-procure our fire remedials contract, this will include the installation of fire doors and compartmentation works. We are inviting a select group of suppliers who have previously registered an interest with MHS through past public tenders, to undertake pre-market engagement, in the form of a feedback survey, to help formulate our approach to our upcoming fire remedials procurement and resultant contract. Responses will assist us in preparing our future tender structure, specification and cost model. In order to ensure fairness and equal treatment, all the information shared to contractors and the outcomes of the market engagement will be made available when the tender notice and tender documents are released.

The 3 stages are described in more detail below, although full details are available within the procurement documentation. Stage 1: The PSQ stage All Suppliers that wish to be considered for the Contract are required to complete and return the PSQ in Word format, and all supporting documentation by the deadline stated. This stage evaluates applicants suitability to undertake the contract through a series of pass/fail and scored questions and conditions of participation. mhs homes will use this stage to confirm that neither the Supplier, nor any related persons within its corporate group, associated persons relied on to meet the conditions of participation, or proposed sub-contractors are listed on the Cabinet Office debarment list. In addition, mhs homes will consider whether any Supplier or related persons within its corporate group, associated persons relied on to meet the conditions of participation, or proposed sub-contractors are excluded or excludable Suppliers. mhs homes will undertake a review of the completed PSQ with reference to any information held on the Central Digital Platform. Responses to any conditions of participation will be assessed in accordance with the selection process and any selection criteria as set out in the PSQ. The Authority intends to take 6 (Six) Bidders through to the ITT Stage, where there is a tied score at sixth place, all tied Bidders shall be progressed. In the event that there are fewer than 6 (six) suitably qualified Bidders (i.e. less than 6 (six)) Bidders pass the PSQ the Authority shall select only those Bidders to progress to the ITT provided that there is a sufficient number to ensure genuine competition. The draft ITT documents have been made available to Suppliers for information only at stage 1, and suppliers should note these are subject to revisions at mhs discretion. Suppliers are not required to submit a response to the ITT at this stage. Stage 2: The Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage Stage 2 will commence with the issuing of a letter inviting Suppliers that have been successfully shortlisted at Stage 1 to submit their tenders, in response to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) document. The ITT stage will be assessed on Quality, Price and Social Value. mhs homes will evaluate all tenders in accordance with the criteria and methodology set out in the ITT, to determine which Supplier has submitted the most advantageous tender and is to be awarded the Contract. A period of post tender clarifications may be undertaken to clarify any aspect of a supplier's tender submission. Once the evaluation has concluded, a preferred bidder (the highest scoring, also known as the most advantageous tender) will be identified. Optional Stage 3: Preferred Supplier Stage This is an optional stage and its inclusion is entirely at MHS Homes discretion. Should we not utilize stage 3, we will progress straight to issuing assessment summaries and contract award notices. The optional Preferred Supplier Stage may be used to clarify or confirm any commitments made in the preferred bidders tender or to refine and improve a tender to drive additional value. It will be conducted after final tenders have been received and assessed, and prior to the award of the contract. It will be conducted in a transparent and auditable manner, ensuring that any details of discussions/negotiations, key points or outcomes are recorded and kept. Following this stage, we'll review any agreed changes to ensure that it is still appropriate to award the contract to the preferred supplier and any agreed changes will be reflected in the contract that is entered into."
