"riskDetails": "Market Capacity Risk - Limited number of suitably qualified subcontractors in the region may lead to insufficient competition. Pricing Volatility - Fluctuations in material and labour costs (e.g. due to inflation or supply chain issues) could impact contract delivery and budget adherence. Supply Chain Disruption - Global or local events could impact delivery times and costs. Mobilisation Delays - Contractors may face delays in starting services due to onboarding, resource allocation, or access issues. Policy or Legislative Changes - New government regulations (e.g. building safety, net zero requirements) could impose additional obligations mid-contract. Force Majeure Events - Natural disasters, pandemics, or geopolitical events could impact delivery timelines or costs. Undisclosed Conflicts of Interest - A bidder may have undeclared relationships that could compromise the integrity of the process. Cybersecurity Breaches - If digital systems are used for scheduling or reporting, there's a risk of data breaches or system failures. Complaints - Dissatisfaction from residents or stakeholders could delay or complicate works. Leasehold reform - Ongoing or forthcoming leasehold reform legislation (e.g. Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill) may alter the rights of leaseholders, particularly around service charges, consultation requirements, and enfranchisement. In-house delivery - Services delivered by internal resource may increase or decrease during lifetime of the contract. Technology Failure or Integration Issues - If digital systems (e.g. job scheduling, resident portals) are used, integration or reliability issues may arise. Acquisition of merger in the event GPHG acquires additional stock, e.g. through merger, contract or other acquisition, then GPHG reserves the right to extend the contract by a further period of 1 year and up to 50% value Additional services - Suppliers may be required to deliver additional services/works or location that are in keeping with the nature of the contract for presently unknown variables, such as: > to support other departments within Great Places > to help to meet carbon net zero objectives > supporting any incoming or new regulatory and legislative changes > in cases of urgency > in cases of an alternative contract failure or termination > in cases of GPHG staff absence or illness"
