Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Capital Major Works Contractor" tender is initiated by mhs homes group, a public authority located in Chatham, United Kingdom. This selective procurement is aimed at securing a contractor to handle substantial projects across mhs homes' housing stock, encompassing works such as kitchen and bathroom replacements, window and door renewals, roofing, and more, valuing a total of £4.5 million. The tender process is currently in the 'tender' stage with a competitive flexible procedure incorporating up to three stages: PSQ, ITT, and an optional preferred supplier stage. Key dates include an expression of interest deadline on 27th July 2026, and the contract period stretches from 18th January 2027 to 18th January 2030, with potential renewals. The procurement method focuses on ensuring competition through a selective assessment at the PSQ stage, with up to six bidders progressing to the ITT stage based on technical capability and economic criteria.

The 3 stages are described in more detail below. Stage 1:Stage 1 commenced with the issuing of a Tender Notice and the publication of this PSQ. All Suppliers that wish to be considered for the Contract are required to complete and return this PSQ in this form in Word format, and all supporting documentation. The DSQ is assessed on a pass/fail basis with technical capability written questions also assessed. 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. Please Note: At this stage (Stage 1) Suppliers are only required to complete and submit their response to the PSQ (together with all supporting information) by the deadline stated above. The draft ITT documents have been made available to Suppliers for information only at this stage. Suppliers are not required to submit a response to the ITT at this stage. Note stage 2 documents are in draft format and as permitted under the regulations, MHS reserve the right to amend stage 2 documents including assessment criteria prior to the final requests for tender at stage 2. Stage 2: 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. This will be assessed using CPQS methodology, using Pricing and quality question responses to calculate a preferred bidder. Optional Stage 3: Preferred Supplier Stage This is an optional stage and it's inclusion is entirely at MHS Homes discretion. Should we not utilize stage 3, we will progress straight 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."
