## Summary

Leicester City Council is overseeing the public procurement for the "FEW1057 - Decarbonisation Scheme - Salix Programme 2," which falls under the construction industry category. The contract, valued at approximately £3.26 million, is currently in the award stage and is anticipated to run from 20th August 2021 to 19th May 2022. The tender period concluded on 1st July 2021, and the project aims to implement a range of works designed to accelerate decarbonisation efforts, adapting to the constraints of the funding cut-off date in March 2022. The procurement method involved using an existing framework, specifically through direct awards to selected contractors from the PAN1068 framework due to their prior approval by the council.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for contractors within the construction sector, particularly those with experience in decarbonisation projects. Businesses that are well-suited to compete include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) but exclude voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Potential bidders should be prepared to engage in pre-construction service agreements (PCSAs) as the contracting authority seeks to harness contractor expertise early in the project timeline. The geographical scope extends across various regions in England, enhancing the prospects for local contractors to participate in delivering this vital initiative.

## Notice

A programme of works was developed to deliver the full project. This should completion dates beyond the Salix funding cut-off date of March 2022. Ways where explored to reduce this and target completions for March 2021. The activities on the programme which would have the most impact in reducing the time scales were identified as a) the tendering and b) the contractor design periods. The mitigation is to be making direct awards and enter into Pre-Construction Service Agreements (PCSA), thereby engaging the contractors at an earlier stage. The contractors selected were from the existing PAN1068 framework. This was considered the most appropriate method of selection, as the contractors, to be on the framework had previously been approved by LCC and works could be spread evenly. However, only five framework contractors advised that they will be willing to be considered for a PCSA. To deliver the programme of works it is considered that six contractors are needed. Ashe Construction were approached, and reference sought for this contractor.
