Proposed Framework: NHG ‘s are looking to create a multiple-supplier Framework Agreement with a single Lot. Currently, it is proposed that the framework duration will be up to 8 years (with an initial 4-year term, which can be extended by a period of 4 years each). The length of the call off contracts will differ dependent on the scope of works.

ABOUT US: Notting Hill Genesis is one of the largest housing associations in the country, with more than 66,000 homes across London and the south-east. We provide homes across a range of tenures and are committed to delivering housing that is affordable for all. We build and maintain quality homes, creating diverse and thriving communities. This is our primary purpose and everything else we do supports that. For more information, visit www.nhg.org.uk.

PROCUREMENT PROCESS: We will be following the two-stage, Restricted Procedure. The Selection Questionnaire (SQ) stage is starting in July 2023, with around 4 weeks allowed for bidders to respond. The Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage is likely to start in September 2023, with around 4 weeks allowed for bidders to respond. The procurement timetable can be found in the tender documents.

FRAMEWORK VALUE: The estimated value of the Framework Agreement given in this Notice is based on NHG's current anticipated requirements and on the maximum potential length of any call-off contracts. NHG cannot give any guarantees that works totalling this value will in fact be called off from this framework. All information in this Contract Notice (including but not limited to lot structure, values, services) is not a firm commitment and may be subject to change following market engagement.

Our rationale and justification for procuring a Framework for a longer period than four years in this case is as follows. We are of the view that the proposed framework length and option to extend beyond four years in this case is justified as comprising an “exceptional case” for the purposes of Regulation 33(3) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015:

1.NHG has a 5-year EICR programme and may be required to procure additional suppliers beyond the typical 4 year term of the framework to deliver this.
2.NHG is setting out a new approach to delivering long term social value through the framework and believes that a long-term partnering approach is the only way to achieve this
