## Summary

The procurement process for the Cobalt - Gutter Cleaning Services 2016 contract has been completed by Symphony Housing Group, which is based in Liverpool, UK. This contract falls under the services category, specifically focusing on guttering work, and was awarded on 13th October 2016, with the contract period running from 3rd October 2016 to 3rd October 2020. The procurement followed an open procedure and involved a total contract value of £61,453.18. The project primarily targeted the North Liverpool area, highlighting the importance of maintaining gutters to prevent structural damage to buildings.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in maintenance services, particularly those offering gutter cleaning or related works. Companies equipped to manage cyclical maintenance and clearance of blocked drains, as well as organisations with experience in pest control linked to building maintenance, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage, as the tender indicated a supportive approach towards their participation in the procurement process.

## Notice

Gutters are integral to a building's structure and serve to control the flow of rainwater to protect the roof, walls and foundations. A gutter clogged with leaves, sticks or other debris can cause a leaky roof or water damage to the interior of the building and therefore have the potential to affect our tenants. Gutters can also make nice homes for pests (experienced at Oaktree Gardens), rodents, mold and honeycombs from bee infestations. Therefore, it is important that we have a preventative measure in place to avoid these issues. We are currently in the process of installing downpipe guards to prevent large items blocking the downpipes at Oaktree Gardens as an additional measure. Cobalt is seeking to appoint a single contractor to carry out a cyclical maintenance Gutter Clearing in the North Liverpool area. Work will include the clearance of blocked drains and road gullies, and the clearance of eaves or roof valley gutters and downpipes.
