The Council previously published a Prior Information Notice (PIN) under -Housing, Neighbourhood and Building Services - Repairs & Maintenance and Gas Servicing & Repair Delivery Options Appraisal, Portsmouth - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/032496-2024?origin=SearchResults&p=1 The Council is responsible for managing a portfolio of properties that require regular repairs and maintenance, along with gas servicing to ensure safety, compliance, and efficiency to Council properties. The Council have published a PIN and subsequent associated documents under the current Public Contract Regulations 2015. However, the subsequent formal procurement will look to commence from the end of May 2025/early June 2025, at which point the forthcoming Procurement Act 2023 will have come into force legally. The Council's further options appraisal will assess market capacity, capability, and interest in delivering the required services under 4 lots, the current proposed structure of which is as follows. The options appraisal will place a particular focus on the structure of Lots 2 and 4 below - • Lot 1 - Repairs and Maintenance On-Island (Lot1A) and Repairs and Maintenance Off-Island (Lot 1B) (this is one lot with two separate contract awards to different suppliers) - estimated annual value from £14M to £18M per supplier, total value both suppliers of around £36M • Lot 2 - Repairs and Maintenance Corporate Assets - estimated annual value from £400k to £600k • Lot 3 - Gas Servicing and Repair - estimated annual value from £4M to £5M • Lot 4 - Fire Safety Compliance Services - estimated annual value from £500k to £1M The income figures included on the lots above are based on current known anticipated demands. The Council are reviewing the implications of the devolution process to Portsmouth and the wider Authorities and will look to future proof to any subsequent procurement process to include impacts in relation to economic development, supplier diversity and regulatory compliance. This will encompass considerations of the geographical location, scope of service, and value of the opportunity.

Suppliers are encouraged but not obliged to complete an online survey.

For detail on how to access the survey suppliers should register on the Councils e-sourcing platform, Intend - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/portsmouthcc/aspx/home The Council are requesting the survey is completed by Wednesday 19th March 2025 by 12:00, any responses after this deadline may not be considered in the soft market testing report.

The current model for gas and repairs maintenance has been delivered with a single term service provider for gas, covering both on and off-island and two term service providers for repairs, with one covering on-island and one covering off-island. As both the gas contract and the two repair contracts are due to expire in March 2026 there is an opportunity to run the re-procurement of these concurrently and explore the possibility of obtaining value while aligning service priorities.

Notwithstanding the above exception, the Council reserves the right to award under any or a combination of lotting options i.e. the Council could award lots 1A, 2, 3 and 4 to a single contractor and lot 1B to a separate contractor. The Council are also considering restricting suppliers who are shortlisted to bid for either Lot 1A or Lot 1B, being shortlisted the lot 2 opportunity and vice versa.
