## Summary

The Portsmouth City Council is initiating a procurement process for the establishment of a Specialist Demolition Works Framework, targeting the demolition of the high-rise residential blocks, Horatia and Leamington House, located in Somerstown, Portsmouth. This process, classified under demolition work, is currently at the "Tender" stage, with a deadline for submitting the Selection Questionnaire by 6th November 2020 and the final tender return deadline set for 22nd January 2021. The framework agreement is anticipated to be awarded on 23rd February 2021, with on-site work expected to commence in April 2021 and conclude by May 2022. The total value of the demolition works is estimated at approximately £5.25 million, and the framework will be active for four years, potentially extending for another four years, allowing for multiple call-off contracts with varying project values.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses in the demolition and construction industry, particularly those capable of handling high-value and complex projects. Companies specialising in demolition services for residential and commercial buildings valued at £1 million and upwards should consider competing for this contract, as the framework is designed to accommodate a range of projects over its duration. With the potential for total values to reach between £240 million and £400 million over an eight-year period, firms with expertise in delivering demolition works are well-positioned to grow through this opportunity.

## Notice

Portsmouth City Council - the 'Council' - is seeking to establish a multi contractor framework agreement for high rise building demolition works and other related high value / complexity demolition works. Once established the framework agreement will be open to all contracting authorities within England to use. The framework agreement will be established via the invitation of tenders for the demolition of Leamington and Horatia House - 2 high rise residential blocks located in Somerstown, Portsmouth. Award of the framework agreement is targeted for 23rd February 2021 with commencement immediately following. The value of demolition works at Leamington and Horatia House are anticipated to be approximately PS5.25M with onsite works commencing April 2021 to be completed by May 2022. The contract will be let using the JCT Design and Build Contract 2016. Whilst the call off contract is specifically to address the demolition of Leamington ad Horatia House, it is envisaged the type of contractors who tender for the framework will have the capability to undertake other demolition works for lower complexity residential and office/commercial buildings from around PS1M in value upwards. The framework agreement will run for a period of 4 years with the option to extend by a further 4 years, during which individual call off contracts will be let on a project by project basis. There will be no upper or lower value constraints in respect of project contracts let by via the framework agreement. The Council is unable to provide any accurate estimates of total value of work that may be let via the framework agreement over the total allowable term. However, total values could range over 8 years from PS240M to PS400M. The Council will let the agreement and associated live project works in accordance with the following programme: 1.
