• Emergency repairs Out of Hours - We estimate 120 jobs per quarter needing to be completed on an emergency basis, reinstating power, dealing with unsafe electrical installations.

• Periods of high demand and cover for absence e.g. leave, sickness etc - We estimate issuing up to 60 orders per quarter, all of which will be issued with 28-day priorities for various electrical maintenance and testing.

• Work to maintain PV systems and batteries, including enabling work for our roofers - We have a planned installation programme currently providing PV to many of our homes.

Our initial requirement is to assist removal of some panels where properties require repairs to roofs. We estimate issuing up to 6 orders per quarter, all of which will have 7-day targets. Over the four-year period, this work is likely to extend repairing or replacing panels and other PV accessories.

Work Orders will be issued as individual Call-off Contracts from two main sources:

1. Directly from our contact centre colleagues (in house during working hours, externally outside of office hours) on receipt of repairs being reported by tenants. These will aim to capture details of the repair being reported before forwarding details with the work order via email to the Provider.

2. Directly from our Inspectors or Team Leaders, who will provide the necessary scheduled information for work in a work order to be sent via email.
