## About this tender

Brent Council manages circa 9,000 rented homes and 4,000 leased homes across the Borough. It currently delivers its responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance through a single Borough-wide contract which has been in place since 2014 and which is currently due to expire at the end of September 2024.

New arrangements will therefore need to be procured. Brent wishes to use the new contracts to drive excellence in customer service and the quality of homes and is considering the following approach:

- Separation of the stock into two geographical contract areas
- Within each area, separate contracts for:
- Responsive repairs
- Void repairs
- Planned maintenance (internal component replacements such as kitchens and bathrooms, internal communal works, external planned works, major projects including tower block refurbishment, electrical safety and fire safety works)

The estimated annual value of the works in total across both areas and all workstreams (responsive, voids and planned) is likely to be initially circa £10 - £15million, potentially rising to circa £20 to £25million. It should be noted that this will be lower in the first 2-3 years of the contract as the planned programme includes major refurbishment works that have already been procured separately.

Brent is considering requiring bidders to bid for all 3 elements of work within each geographical area, however separate contracts would be issued for each workstream. Bidders will still be able to submit tenders for both areas however Brent may not award more than one geographical area to a single contractor (the Invitation to Tender will set out the process). Successful bidders may be awarded one or more lots based on the most economically advantageous tender for each lot.

In addition, Brent is undertaking a separate procurement for a Subcontractors Framework, which it is intended will encourage participation of local SMEs and will provide an available local supply chain with sustainable rates and prompt payment requirements. This will be in place for the start of this main Responsive, Void and Planned Maintenance contracts although not prior to the procurement process. The successful contractors will be expected to use the councils Subcontractor (local supplier) framework for their supply chain requirements.

Brent is keen to understand the level of interest from contractors in bidding for these proposed Contracts for responsive repairs, voids and planned maintenance and to shape the offer to secure maximum interest from the market. As a result, the council is proposing to have a market engagement event on the 14th of February 2024 via teams (Details of the teams invite will be sent on a later date). Please send your contact details including email details for the teams invite to  confirming your interest in attending this engagement.

We would be grateful if you would provide response to questions in section II.2.4 (Description of the procurement) and your responses submitted via email to  no later than 5pm on Monday 12th February 2024. All queries regarding this notice to go to same email address. Your response should include how you would work with the proposed Subcontractor Framework, setting out your requirements and general principles
