Summary: Brighton and Hove City Council (the Council) are looking to undertake a competitive dialogue / competitive procedure with negotiation to deliver a single materials supplier to support the delivery of its Housing Repairs and Maintenance Service.

The intended outcome of the process is to award a contract to a single supplier to act as a broker or single point of contact.

This will be to supply all required materials to support the reactive and planned repairs, servicing of and building work to Brighton and Hove City Councils Housing Stock.

Currently materials are supplied from a range of specialist's outlets within the City, this helps ensure a flow of materials to a range of trades.

The Council would look for the replacement to provide the same or improved access to all materials across all trades.

Our proposed contract length would be between 5-10 years with an expected 5-year minimum term.

Based on current expenditure the estimated contract value is between £10.3 million and £20.6 million over the term.

The incumbent suppliers contract ends in 2025 it is our intention to tender for, award and mobilise the new supplier prior to the end of the existing contract to ensure continuity of materials delivery to our teams.

Further information is attached to this notice.
