Procurement Frameworks for RBKC Housing Management - Construction Professional Services

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Contract Award As a landlord RBKC is responsible for the repair, maintenance and good management of its buildings and housing stock RBKC is proposing to establish framework agreements for the provision of professional services that will enable it to meet these obligations.

From time-to-time work is required to RBKC’s buildings and estates, due to ordinary wear and tear, the finite lifespan of the relevant parts, for compliance with the most up to date standards and regulations, and to otherwise ensure that its housing stock is safe, well managed, in good condition, and meets the needs of residents.

To facilitate this work, professional and specialist advice is required to support the internal delivery teams.

The proposed framework agreements are intended to ensure that when, during the coming years, RBKC finds that it is necessary to carry out works to a particular building or estate, arrangements will be in place to call-off and deliver the professional services that will support the safe, timely and cost-effective delivery of works.

RBKC intends that the use of these framework agreements will produce economies of scale and administrative efficiencies, that will enable it to achieve greater value for money for the Council, and for its leaseholders.

To that end, RBKC has divided the procurement into multiple lots so as to mitigate risk, foster competition in the market by promoting tender participation from small and medium size enterprises, and avoid single-supplier dependency.
