## About this tender

The General Construction Works Framework has been let on a 3 (three) year term with options to extend for a further 4 (four) years in 12 (twelve) month increments, resulting in a maximum framework term of seven (7) years.

The purpose of the Framework is to provide multiple competent and proven Suppliers under a framework agreement who can provide a wide range of construction works including working on underground / sub-stations and near the operational railway.

As a general guide, construction works cover almost any work that is done to a permanent or temporary building or structure, civil engineering work or new asset installation works. The following works are anticipated delivered through the framework, including but is not limited to:

- Gas, Electrical and other associated Utility works
- Mechanical Works
- General Construction Works, including small scale demolition activities.
- High / Low Voltage Works
- Civils Works. Excavation, Backfill and reinstatement activities.
- CIS / Comms / Public address systems.
- HVAC
- Signage, shelters and other associated station infrastructure activities.
- Vegetation / Landscaping
- Underground Station / Sub-Surface Fire Requirements

MEL have split the lots by value into three lots and restricted Lot 1 to SMEs only.

The Lots are:

- Lot 1 - £100,000 - £1.5 Million
- Lot 2 - £1.2 Million - £3 Million
- Lot 3 - Over £2.5 Million

The overall objectives of the framework are:

- Enhance safety standards on all construction projects undertaken;
- Provide sustainability and environmental responsibility;
- Deliver best value across all stages of delivery;
- Increased Client and Customer satisfaction;
- Quality Assurance and compliance to MEL and Network Rail Standards;
- Effective risk management;
- Regulatory compliance;
- Promote innovation and technology integration;
- Community engagement;
- Ensure the supplier competencies are maintained throughout the lifecycle of the Framework;
- Provide an efficient means of engaging the supply chain to ensure projects have minimal procurement delays and enables delivery on time;
- Contract with multiple Suppliers who can meet the requirements as set out in the relevant Lots to drive best value through competition; and
- Suppliers have already been vetted and therefore the process of tendering or direct awarding construction works is more efficient with assurance of suitability and compliance.

The new framework allows for direct award options (up to current and future threshold values), quotes and mini competitions.

The framework will be let as a zero-value contract, allowing for a large range of works to be covered under this contract to promote best value.
