Scope
Description
The council seeks to procure two (2) contractors to deliver specialist adaptations including
installations and repairs for residents with vulnerabilities and disabilities. These new contracts
will be for a period of up to forty-eight (48) months (four (4) years).
The council is a landlord to around 35,000 council tenants living in homes located across the borough. Within these homes, council tenants or household members may have disabilities that require their home to have adaptions carried out to enable and maintain independent living or allow carers to provide caring duties within the home. In addition, specialist adaptations and repairs are carried out to existing installations where required.
The Occupational Therapy Team within the Health and Social Care Directorate assess residents’ needs and make recommendations for any adaptations following referrals to their team. These recommendations are then submitted to the Adaptations Team within the Repairs service, who will attend the property to survey how the recommended adaptations can be implemented. Following the survey a specialist scale drawing is made of the adaptations required and is allocated to the contractor to carry out the works.

This services contract is not being divided into lots.
Works will be issued evenly on an alternate basis between the two (2) Contractors e.g. Contractor A receives jobs 1, 3 and 5, and Contractor B receives 2, 4 and 6. This will be monitored closely using IT systems put in place by the service.
Further details will be provided in the invitation to tender.
