This procurement, classified under works in the fire prevention installation category, will involve a range of improvements including sprinklers, alarms, and passive fire measures. Interested contractors can bid on one or more of the eight lots, which are divided by discipline and geographic location, covering both Northern and Southern England. Key dates include the updated submission deadline for qualifications on 18th February 2022. This framework presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction and safety sectors, especially those specialising in fire prevention measures and building safety improvements. Companies well-equipped to respond to this tender include contractors with experience in installing fire alarms, sprinklers, and passive fire systems. Given that the framework may also be accessed by other public authorities, there is potential for broader engagement and additional work beyond the initial contracts awarded by The Guinness Partnership. ## Notice The Guinness Partnership Ltd. (Guinness) is conducting a procurement process to appoint a framework of contractors to deliver building safety improvements. Guinness has an existing portfolio of properties which require a range of building safety improvement works to be undertaken over the next 4-5 years. We are conducting this process to appoint a framework of contractors to deliver these works. Guinness also intends to make this framework available to other public bodies and authorities (see Part VI.3. 'Additional Information') where they intend to undertake programmes of a similar nature. The framework will run for 4 years, and contracts may be awarded for work at any time during this period. The programme of work may run for longer than this and call-off contracts awarded under the framework may run past the end of its 4 year term. The framework will be separated into 8 lots - 3 disciplines (4 including multi-disciplinary), split across 2 geographic regions* as follows: - Lot 1 - North - Multi-Disciplinary - Lot 2 - South* - Multi-Disciplinary - Lot 3 - North - Sprinklers - Lot 4 - South-East - Sprinklers - Lot 5 - North - Fire Alarms - Lot 6 - South-East - Fire Alarms - Lot 7 - North - Passive Fire - Lot 8 - South-East - Passive Fire * The multi-disciplinary lot in the South of England will also require contractors to cover the South-West. Contractors bidding for other lots in the South-East will have the option to express an interest in delivering works in the South-West should a requirement arise. A fully defined programme and requirements for individual schemes is in the process of being developed and we have shared our current identified position in the tender pack. Contractors being invited through to ITT stage will be required to provide prices via a schedule of rates which will form the basis of award and pricing for direct award contracts, and ceiling prices for mini-competitions. The outline programme currently identified by Guinness for these works currently includes c.180 buildings. This will form the basis of the programme although as stated, other organisations may also access the framework, provided that sufficient capacity remains within the advertised framework value limits. A Prior Information Notice (PIN) was issued in March 2021 via the Find a Tender Service for the future contract opportunity under reference 2021/S 000-005444. This was not a call for competition, but was a request for potential contractors to express interest in bidding for work. Guinness will ensure that tenderers in this process have exactly the same information as was provided to any contractors who responded to the PIN to maintain fairness. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/001458-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Jan 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | 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 | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE GUINNESS PARTNERSHIP LTD | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North West London | | Postcode | NW1 3FG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Regent's Park | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45343000 - Fire-prevention installation works ## Release History - 18 Jan 2022 at 13:11 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/001458-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.guinnesspartnership.com/ - https://procontract.due-north.com/ - https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/nationalaccounts/uksectoraccounts/datasets/publicsectorclassificationguide ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
