• Responsive repairs to all tenanted properties, paid for predominantly on a Price Per Property (PPP) basis
• Works to Void Properties, paid for on a Schedule of Rates basis

At the discretion of Nehemiah the following may be included:

• Planned maintenance works of varying nature. This may potentially including kitchens and bathrooms, electrical works, cyclical decorations, doors and windows, boilers and heating and roof replacement

The contract is a Term Alliance Contract (TAC-1) which will commence on 7 April 2021 for an initial period of five years, with the option to extend for a further five-year period.

The estimated annual value of the contract (excluding VAT and inflation) is £421,000 for the Core Works (i.e. responsive and void repairs), plus the option to include at the discretion of Nehemiah planned maintenance up to a maximum value of £365,000, hence a total maximum annual contract value of £786,000.
