This initiative is aimed at refurbishing void properties within the Council's housing stock of 7,500 properties to prepare them for new tenants. The tender was published on 14th February 2022, and the submission deadline for bids is set for 7th March 2022. The contract period will commence on 1st April 2022 and extend until 1st October 2022, with works allocated to selected contractors on a rotational basis. This tender presents substantial opportunities for contractors, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in construction and housing refurbishment. The Council intends to appoint three to four contractors to a framework agreement, enabling them to secure a steady flow of work by completing smaller, manageable packages of properties. Businesses with experience in construction work for multi-dwelling buildings and individual houses will be particularly well-suited to compete for this project, helping to enhance their portfolios while contributing to the community's housing needs. ## Notice The Cambridge City Council (CCC) is seeking to award a contract for the provision of works to void properties within the Councils housing stock of 7500 properties. Void properties means that those people requiring a property are possibly in unsuitable accommodation and it is one of the key priorities of the Council is to always make the maximum number of suitable properties available. The Council is looking appoint a number of contractors, most likely three (3) and no more than four (4) to a framework for the allocation of work during this excessively busy period of requirement. Those contractors appointed to this framework will be given blocks of work (no more than 5 properties at a time) to bring the required standard of readiness for new tenants. These allocated blocks of work will be reviewed as individual work packages with requirements and timelines being agreed at the point of allocation. Work will be allocated on a rotational basis through each position on the framework. Should a contractor be unable to commit to a package of work at the point it is offered the next in line will be offered the work. However, when the next work package is available the contractor who was unable to complete the work will be made the initial offer. The Council reserves the right to review contractors who refuse work packages on four (4) successive occasions. Additionally, the Council reserves the right to review framework places for Contractors who continually fail to meet quality standards or fail to meet the contractually agreed timelines required for completion /sign off in order to make properties available. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4cf913bc-b20e-4f05-b23a-43a862ac7413 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Feb 2022 | | Submission deadline | 7 Mar 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2022 - 1 Oct 2022 | | 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 | CAMBRIDGE CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | CAMBRIDGE | | Post town | Cambridge | | Postcode | CB2 3QJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Cambridge | | Electoral ward | Market | | Westminster constituency | Cambridge | | 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 - 45211000 - Construction work for multi-dwelling buildings and individual houses ## Release History - 14 Feb 2022 at 15:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4cf913bc-b20e-4f05-b23a-43a862ac7413 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4cf913bc-b20e-4f05-b23a-43a862ac7413 14th February 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://procontract.due-north.com E-Tendering Portal ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
