The procurement falls under the construction works category and is open for SMEs. The tender deadline for submissions is 28th October 2022, with the contract period scheduled to run from 9th January 2023 to 31st March 2023. This tender provides an opportunity for construction companies interested in building works to engage with LiveWest Homes Limited. Businesses capable of handling complex building restoration projects are well-suited to compete. Contractors should visit the site before tendering to understand the scope of work required. The buying organisation aims to rebuild the entire front elevation of the building due to significant structural issues, creating opportunities for contractors with expertise in stone masonry and building restoration. ## Notice Works originally commenced in January 2022 to replace an area of defective Ashlar stonework around a window at first floor level which has bowed and is out of plumb. However, since the project started, it has become apparent that the problem is much greater than first thought and the entire front elevation needs to taken down and rebuilt. This is because the Ashlar outer skin is very thin and is not tied to the inner skin of stonework. The inner skin of stonework is formed of random rubble and, as such, it is not possible to tie the Ashlar Stone to the inner skin of random stone. The Ashlar Stone can not self support itself which is why areas started to bow, distort, and become dangerous. The building is therefore in a state of despair with areas of inner stonework exposed, some areas of Ashlar removed (most of the Ashlar has been removed) and temporary support and propping in situ (internally and externally) to keep the building in a safe and stable condition until such times as the works commence. We therefore strongly suggest that tendering contractors visit site to appraise the live situation prior to tendering. * To date, Longreach scaffolding have provided the essential propping works and Rowland Stone have removed the Ashlar Stone. * Roland Stone hold the balance of the Ashlar Stone that has been removed in their warehouse. The existing stone needs to be put back as part of the works so the Contractor will need to liaise with Roland Stone in that respect. The building will be occupied by the current tenants during the course of the works, with the possible exception of flat 11c which may become vacant during the course of the works. For the purposes of tendering, please assume that flat 11c can be used by the Contractor for welfare facilities. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4142852-2432-4d80-beb6-74cc9ba3d337 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Oct 2022 | | Submission deadline | 28 Oct 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 9 Jan 2023 - 31 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LIVEWEST HOMES LIMITED | | Locality | EXETER | | Post town | Exeter | | Postcode | EX5 2FZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK43 Devon CC | | Local authority | East Devon | | Electoral ward | Broadclyst | | Westminster constituency | Exmouth and Exeter East | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 12 Oct 2022 at 16:47 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4142852-2432-4d80-beb6-74cc9ba3d337 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4142852-2432-4d80-beb6-74cc9ba3d337 12th October 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=1678c00c-8349-ed11-811a-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.livewest.co.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
