Organisation background
Halton Housing Trust (HHT) was formally created on 5.12.2005. The Trust is a company limited by guarantee and registered with Companies House. We are a not for profit housing association, who own and manage 6 100 homes in the Cheshire towns of Widnes and Runcorn.
HHT’s vision is to ‘deliver high quality and excellent services for all’. Its’ mission is to ‘provide high quality housing services with a social conscience’. Its’ values are based around both customers and employees.
We provide affordable homes for people who may not have the means to buy or rent a home privately, help people who are homeless and provide support to older or disabled people to help them live independently in their own homes.
Tender information
This tender is being undertaken as an open procedure, as detailed in Regulation 15 of the UK statutory instrument Public Contracts Regulations 2006/5.
HHT are seeking bids from contractors to participate in a framework to provide new pitched and flat roofs to existing HHT properties. The framework will consist of 2 lots as follows:
— Lot 1: Pitched roofs re-roofing;
— Lot 2: Flat roofs re-roofing.
Bidders can bid on 1 or both lots
For Lot 1, the tender process is to create a long-term framework of a number of roofing contractors (envisaged to be 4 contractors for lot 1) to support the Trust for the next 4 years to deliver its pitched roofing renewal programme. The initial call-off contract for lot 1 will be based on the outcome of this tender process. The highest scoring contractor for Lot 1 will be awarded the 2015-2016 programme of works for pitched roofing. The work required will be based on the properties shown in the Lot 1 schedule of works document, however HHT reserve the right to add/omit properties to the programme in order to meet the needs of the Trust. Where any properties are added to/omitted from the programme, updated rates will be calculated pro rata based on the prices submitted within the lot 1 schedule of works spreadsheet. Call-off contracts from the framework for subsequent years will be awarded by HHT via mini-competition, or on a direct award basis.
For Lot 2, the purpose of this tender process is to create a long-term framework of a number of roofing contractors (envisaged to be 4 contractors for lot 2) to support the Trust for the next 4 years to deliver its flat roofing renewal programme. Packages of work will be awarded to successful framework providers on a case by case basis to meet the needs of the Trust. Call-off contracts will be awarded by HHT via mini-competition, or on a direct award basis.
For both lots, bidders are advised to conduct site visits during the tender period to ascertain any further information that will be required to submit a tender. Bidders should contact Phil Sixsmith via email at phil.sixsmith@haltonhousing.org by Tuesday 17.3.2015 at the latest in order to arrange site visits.
Successful contractors will not be permitted to subcontract work to third parties without the prior approval of HHT.
The proposed framework will consist of approximately 4 contractors for lot 1, and 4 contractors for lot 2, and will last for a maximum of 4 years. It is anticipated that the framework will commence from May 2015. The estimated value of work over the framework period for pitched roofs will be in the region of GBP 3 800 000 excluding VAT, but could be as high as GBP 4 800 000. The estimated value of work for flat roofs is expected to be around GBP 250 000 excluding VAT, but could be as high as GBP 500 000. These values are estimates only. No guarantees are given, nor are implied as to the actual value of work that will be placed with successful bidders participating in the resulting framework agreement. HHT reserve the right to award call-off contracts of varying length, subject to the work required and the needs of the Trust.
The ITT has been issued by HHT and sets out the information which is required by HHT in order to assess the suitability of contractors and their ability to deliver the requirements of the proposed framework and the associated call-off contracts/packages to be awarded during the 4 years of the framework.
