Care & Repair Framework Agreement

Peterborough City Council's (PCC) Care & Repair Home Improvement Agency, part of the Adult Social Care Home Service Delivery Team, anticipates undertaking a procurement exercise for the provision of a framework agreement for contractors to deliver grant funded adaptations and building works.

The Council is committed to transforming local provision to better meet the needs of vulnerable, elderly and disabled adults and disabled children the Peterborough Unitary Authority area. The purpose of the proposed procurement exercise will be to procure almost all the agency services by utilising schedules of rates and competition within the framework, in order to develop an innovative, flexible team of contractors to deliver the Council’s Disabled Facility Grant allocation from central government.

The contract was intended to be divided into 4 Lots:

- LOT1 - Level Access Shower and Minor Aids & Adaptations

- LOT 2 - Boiler & Central Heating

- LOT 3 - Specialist Deep Cleaning and De-Cluttering

- LOT 4 - Lifts

Regarding Lot 3, Peterborough City Council made a provisional decision to award which was subject to expiry of the mandatory ten day standstill period, in accordance with regulation 87 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, without challenge and subject to Peterborough City Council’s internal approval process. Following a review of the procurement as part of the Council's approval process it was decided that the process for Lot 3 should be discontinued and a new, separate procurement be undertaken to ensure compliance with Public Contract Regulations 2015.

The contract notice reference for the separate procurement for Lot 3 is 2023/S 000-000993.
