Croydon Churches Housing Association Interim Asset Management Contract

CCHA sought expressions of interest from suitably skilled and experienced Service Providers to deliver a programme of works under a single integrated asset management Contract. This will be a TPC 2005 (as amended) for a maximum duration of 10 years. It will run for an initial period of 5 years with the option to extend by up to a further 5 years. The works will be carried out by the Contractor under an amended TPC form of Contract. However, the terms of the Contract give the parties the ability to agree a variation to the contractual arrangements at any point during the Term and enter into such other arrangements as are necessary to deliver the services through an alternative, more tax efficient contractual structure. Further details were in the contract documents issued to bidders.

The works will comprise: responsive repairs, void and planned property works, adaptations, cyclical servicing and decorations, fire proofing and related works, and electrical testing, subject to the acceptable performance of the Service Provider in respect of KPIs. The Contract may also include for the provision of call centre services. The total estimated annual budget is £1,800,000.00

Under the first stage of the process, prospective Service Providers were required to complete a Selection Questionnaire and its associated appendices. Following evaluation, CCHA invited shortlisted bidders to participate i nthe subsequent stages of the process, with four bidders invited to dialogue and Final Tender stage. Full details of the opportunity, the process and all the requirements were in the procurement documents.
