However, the CEF Consortium Members will reserve the right to use service providers

successful on one geographical lot, within the same work stream, in another geographical

lot, when no service provider within the geographical lot in question is available to undertake

the relevant works and value for money can be established.

The CEF Consortium Members are committed to the use of the Contractors Cutting Edge

Framework, and therefore bidders should anticipate that the overall value of the framework

would be in line with the values identified within this contract notice. Individual project

values for this lot will be up to a maximum of ?5,500,000.

This lot is for residential-led development projects in West Yorkshire and surrounding areas

(indicative only - the area as more accurately described on the plan in the procurement

documents) (the "Lot 6 Regions"). Riverside is looking to establish a framework of providers

of building contractor services for significant development works in the Lot 5 Regions which

may include but shall not be limited to:

1. sites for residential use;

2. mixed-use residential-led sites;

3. Mixed-use elements to include health facilities, education and community facilities, retail

or commercial development;

4. Urban regeneration;

5. Refurbishment / retrofit of existing houses, residential buildings, empty homes and

associated buildings for residential-led use;

6. Refurbishment, restoration, conversion of heritage or other buildings for residential-led

use;

7. Demolition, site remediation, infrastructure and enabling works to prepare sites for

residential or mixed-use development;

8. Design and construction of homes; and

9. Self-build or custom build enabling as part of a larger development.

The CEF Consortium Members are committed to executing projects of the above specified

scope and size within this geographical lot. However due to the lack of land availability, the

CEF Consortium Members will actively encourage suppliers to proposed land package deals

throughout the duration of the framework.

The CEF Consortium members will expect the successful bidders to be fully capable of

delivering development projects of similar scope and scale as those described in the lot(s)

they tender for.

The CEF Consortium Members will also expect all successful bidders appointed to its panel

of service providers to play an active role in delivering projects throughout the term of the

framework agreement. Therefore, all bidders must ensure that they satisfy themselves of the

suitability/desirability of the anticipated typical size of projects for the lots they are

tendering for, so as to ensure their maximum participation in the delivery of projects for the

entire life cycle of the framework. Full details of the Riverside's requirements for each lot are

set out in the ITT.

The procurement will involve a two stage process following the Public Contract Regulations

2015 restricted procedure. The framework agreement will be established for a period of 4

years. The overall value of projects on this lot is ?20,000,000.
