## Summary

The procurement process titled "Labour Resources Cumbria" was conducted by Northern Gas Networks Limited, located in Leeds, UK. Classed under the industry category of repair and maintenance services, this process aimed to support network operations across Cumbria through a limited procurement method. The contract includes small works in joinery, carpet fitting, drain repair, and general building services, with an estimated annual value of approximately £15,000. The contract's execution was initiated on January 31, 2022, with a call for tenders under the legal basis of EU regulations, although multiple lots were subsequently cancelled.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses in the construction and maintenance sectors, particularly those with expertise in joinery, building repairs, and specialised services like carpet fitting and drain repair. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, given their agility in managing smaller projects and the requirement for extensive on-site work during weekdays and weekends. Engaging with the Northern Gas Networks may streamline entry into a framework that anticipates numerous engagements annually, reflecting a steady stream of work.

## Notice

Northern Gas Networks require Labour Resources to support the network throughout all operations and activities throughout the term of the agreement. Joinery- This would be in support of our Emergency Service whereby NGN upon attendance at a gas emergency would require a "forced entry" to both domestic and non-domestic properties along with the repair and replacement following such activities. Repair and alterations to customer's property would also be a requirement within our planned works Replacement Programme where access to meter controls is difficult and hence alterations to kitchen cupboards etc. would be required along with replacement/repair/removal of wood, laminate flooring & replacement of doors and glazing. Carpet Fitters / Cleaners- This requirement is for the provision of re-instating an existing carpet which has been lifted by one of our engineers or to provide a carpet cleaning service if our engineers have not been able to avoid any soiling. There may be occasions where we request a full carpet fit but this is rare. Drain Repair - A much-utilised service surrounding damaged drains and duct repairs. General Building Services The main requirement is small works such as plastering, rendering, wall repair & tiling for domestic and commercial properties where our engineers have a need for any reinstatement.

### Procurement Information

An above threshold tender event was carried out in March 21, despite robust early supplier engagement and sourcing which included a meet the buyer event, there was insufficient response to the call for competition. The procurement strategy was to award a maximum of 3 suppliers per lot per area (nine areas) Following evaluation, it was identified that to deliver a framework fit for purpose and provide resource of three suppliers per lot per area, a single source event needed to be carried out to strengthen the framework in the area of Cumbria. This framework agreement is to support NGN in delivering a large portfolio of operational projects & works orders. This framework will assist NGN's Operations to engage with a suite of contracted suppliers pre-qualified to carry out associated works. The estimated total annual value of work delivered under this framework will be in the region of PS450k, circa 1,300 purchase orders per annum. For Cumbria the estimated annual value of work will be PS15k per annum. NGN are awarding an additional single sourced supplier onto a zero value framework agreement. (to support the 9 suppliers awarded via an above threshold tender event). The supplier will not be asked to carry out any works for the lots that were awarded as part of the original tender. Therefore only 4 lots out of 7 are awarded as part of this contract
