## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by Unitas Stoke-on-Trent Ltd, is focused on the project titled "Works in connection with Disabled Facilities Grants (DFG)." This initiative falls within the construction industry and is located in Stoke-on-Trent, West Midlands, England. The tender period is currently active and will close on 1st July 2022, for a contract valued at £1,800,000. The contract is scheduled to commence on 1st August 2022, with an initial duration of two years, potentially extendable for another two years. An open procurement method is being employed, and the selection criteria will consider a mix of price, technical capabilities, and corporate social responsibility.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for contractors, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in residential construction adaptations, such as installing level access showers and undertaking various alterations to homes. Suitable businesses should have the capacity to manage multiple projects simultaneously due to the cascading method of contractor selection, where the contractor first in line gets priority for work allocation. This initiative aims to enhance accessibility in private residences, and as such, contractors committed to quality and social value will be well positioned to compete for this contract.

## Notice

Unitas are looking for Contractors to carry out various works in connection with Disabled Facilities Grants (DFG). The works will largely be made up of level access showers but may also include other internal alterations such as door widening and kitchen alterations and external alterations such as ramps and external doors. All the works will be carried out at private properties within the boundaries of Stoke-on-Trent. Unitas intends to appoint 4 Contractors on JCT Measured Terms Contracts and works will be allocated using the cascading method which means that the Contractor in first place will get 'first refusal' on all of the works. Unitas will utilise the other Contractors when first place is at full capacity and in times of high demand. This opportunity will be evaluated based on MEAT - the split will be 40% price, 30% technical and 30& CSR. The contract period will be 2 year initially with the option to extend for a further 2 years should both parties agree.
