2324-0057 Electrical Repairs and Maintenance Works

Description

The council is a landlord to around 35,000 council tenants and leaseholders living in homes located across the borough. As a landlord the council is responsible for ensuring that repairs needed to residents’ homes are carried out promptly, to ensure safe and habitable housing. The council is seeking to appoint two (2) contractors to a framework agreement to support the council’s in-house team with out-of-hours emergency cover. The scope of this framework agreement includes supporting the in-house teams to cover borough wide repairs to the council’s residential properties including communal areas. Lot 1: The appointed suppliers will support the council’s in-house teams in providing efficient, effective, customer-focused electrical repairs and maintenance services for example repairs to switches, sockets, light fittings etc. It will also include repairs to communal and estate lighting including electrical intakes. Call-off contracts for works will be issued evenly on an alternate basis between the two (2) contractors e.g. Contractor A receives jobs 1, 3 and 5 and Contractor B receives jobs 2, 4 and 6. This will be monitored closely using IT management systems put in place by the Service. The value of works under electrical repairs and maintenance works varies from high-value to low-value jobs. Contractors are expected to carry out all jobs borough wide.
