Description
Swindon Borough Council is seeking to form a contract with a suitable provider for supply of broad range of housing repairs materials and other associated items including (but not limited to) electrical, heating, paints and decorative materials, Roofing, Windows and glass, kitchens, bathroom, ironmongery, sanitaryware, clothing, doors, power tools, aggregates, insulations, gas, plumbing, highways, street lighting, timber, fencing, site safety equipment, etc.
The initial contract term will be for Four (4) years with an option to extend for a further Two (2) years plus a further One (1) year extension. Estimated contract spend is £12m excl. VAT across the initial 4 year contract term and £21.3m excl. VAT across the potential total Seven (7) year contract term.
Associated risk with this procurement:
The value of the contract can change over the contract duration (including extension) due to increase in housing stocks over the period of time or where major repair is to be undertaken across the housing stocks. The impact of this increase can be upto circa £2m (10%) additional sums over contract duration.
Implementation of technology-based services for Click and Collect and Van Stock concepts through NEC housing software (if implemented by SBC, else alternative platform) is within the scope but industry knowledge about implementation of these concepts within the NEC is sparce due to very limited implementation of these concepts on NEC platform across UK. This can impact the overall project and increase in implementation time and resources.

- £21,300,000 excluding VAT
- £25,560,000 including VAT
