Description

Open Framework procured for Peterborough City Council in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023, for the provision of adaptations including extensions, internal alterations, level access showering facilities and associated works in domestic properties; The installation of minor aids and adaptations in domestic properties. The overall aim of the works specified within the Care and Repair Open Framework Agreement is to assist and support elderly, vulnerable and disabled local residents (adults and children) to live independently and be warm and safe. The work will be undertaken in conjunction with the Home Service Delivery Care and Repair Team within Peterborough City Council. The work will predominantly be in the Peterborough City Council Unitary Authority area. Most will be in the city, but some will be in the surrounding areas of Peterborough. The specific aim for each contractor of the Open Framework Agreement and Schedule of Rates is to: - Use responsive, suitably qualified, and experienced, competent and knowledgeable contractors - Use locally based contractors to aid in the responsiveness of the service - Produce high quality work with minimum disruption for clients - Obtain value for money - Commence work promptly following the receipt of an order - To complete the work promptly - Work in occupied properties with the minimum disruption to the client who will be included in one or more of the following categories: elderly, disabled (mentally and/or physically), vulnerable, on a low income. This list is not conclusive. The expected benefits of procuring work this way are a reduction in delays and poor experiences with contractors, and a consistent and shortened timescale from date of first enquiry to completion or work. The work is in Peterborough City Council (PCC) Unitary Authority area through the Peterborough Home Services Delivery Care and Repair Team (C&R). The adaptations will often be funded by Disabled Facility Grants approved by Peterborough City Council. However, the Level Access Shower schedule of works may be used for work that the Care & Repair Team manages which is funded privately, by charities, benevolent funds, by Adult Social Care or Children's Services. It may also form the basis for work which Peterborough Care & Repair may arrange on behalf of other local Councils. The minor aids and adaptations, which is predominantly of low value (under £1,000), is funded from Adult Social Care Budgets The Authority intends for the Open Framework to last for the maximum possible term of 8 years, conforming to the provisions concerning reopening as set out in Section 49 of the Procurement Act 2023.
