The type of works may be both planned and reactive works carried out on a variety of premises including social housing. Works shall include, but not be limited to, asbestos removal, asphalt solutions, general building, internal & external premises cleaning & clearing, electrical, joinery, plastering, tiling, plumbing, labouring, painting & decorating, door & window supply & fitting, metal fabrication, specialist utility repairs, damp remediation & wall ties, roofing, door entry systems & locksmiths, power inspection & servicing. The Building and Associated Works Framework will be for a maximum period of four years (one year fixed with an option to extend for up to another three years in annual or additional year increments). The intended make up of the framework is for the creation of a large number of individual lots covering specific areas of work and individual trade work, providing the best opportunity for the broadest range of prospective providers to apply for and be successful in joining the framework. Individual lots are independent of each other and may run for different periods of time up to the maximum period of four years. The framework agreement will consist of 54 lots. Further details of the nature of each lot can be obtained by accessing the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire documentation available via The Chest e-procurement portal at [the-chest.org.uk](https://www.the-chest.org.uk). Individual contracts raised under the framework agreement can commence at any time after the commencement date of the framework. All contractors appointed to the framework must be able to undertake the required works directly as sub-contracting is not permitted in the majority of lots. Within Lots 3a & 3b permission will be given for minimum sub-contracting of works and within Lot 26 subcontracting of electrical work on bathroom installations will be permitted, subject to this being made to contractors on the framework agreement (view pre-qualification questionnaire documentation for further details). Each Lot will be operated independently of the others and the intended work award process differs between lots. The framework agreement will be available for use by all directorates within Wigan Council and schools in the borough of Wigan and Wigan and Leigh Homes. Note: The Contract Start and Contract End Date referred to in this notice refers to the maximum duration of the framework agreement and not to the duration of individual contracts called-off from the framework. The deadline of Friday 11th December 2015 at 12:00noon represents the deadline for the submission of completed Pre-Qualification Questionnaire applications.
