Description

Nexus requires a small works framework to support the Nexus major projects and maintenance delivery teams with the delivery of the capital programme and critical maintenance activities.

The works will vary on a project-by-project basis but are generally expected to have significant elements of Civil engineering work such as construction, demolition, and structural repair works. Mechanical and electrical work, clearance of vegetation and maintenance/repair of boundary fences may also be required. Some projects may be of a design and build nature. Exacting requirements for each activity will be communicated by Nexus through call-off contracts.

The locations of the sites where the work will take place will vary on a project-by-project basis but are generally expected to be within the Tyne and Wear conurbation and closely associated with the current route of the Metro system.

The framework Contract duration is 48 months with an option to extend for a period of 12 months. Call offs will be made by direct award to the sole supplier on the framework.

The estimated framework value is £15m (Excluding VAT) across the term of the Framework Agreement. Nexus cannot guarantee this estimated framework value; it is an estimate based on possible future pipeline projects.
