Planned and Cyclical Works

Raven Housing Trust is inviting suitably qualified and experienced contractors to be appointed to join their Dynamic Purchasing System DPS to support their Planned Maintenance and Responsive Repairs requirements.

The DPS for Planned Maintenance and Responsive Repairs works and services is expected to run for a period of 6 years the DPS is a two-stage process.

Stage One

Stage one is the initial setup stage to create a list of suitable Contractor's that satisfy Ravens relevant criteria.

Contractors who apply and meet the selection criteria and are not excluded will be admitted to the Raven DPS.

Future tenders during the life of the DPS will be procured under defined lots of work Contractors should identify the lots of work that they are interested in and will be expected to clearly demonstrate their capacity and capability specified for each lot.

There will be no limit on the number of Contractors that may join the DPS for each Lot category.

Any new Contractors can also apply to join the DPS at any point during its lifetime.

The specific works and services that may be procured under the DPS cannot be clearly defined at this stage however the nature and types of works that may be required are included in the tender documents.

The DPS Agreement includes the terms and conditions for subsequent Call Offs, but places no obligations on Raven Housing Trust to procure any planned maintenance and responsive repairs works and services.

The DPS in itself is therefore not a contract contracts are only formed when works and services are called off under a specific lot via stage two.

The Invitation to Tender documents issued by Raven Housing Trust for specific call-off contracts will specify the terms and conditions for the execution of planned and responsive repairs works and services. The standard contract will be based on the most appropriate JCT Form of Contract.

Stage Two

Individual Contractor's will be invited to tender for specific lots where they have expressed interest during stage one for the life of the DPS.

A selection of Contractors who qualify for a specific lot will be invited to tender.

Contract periods will be between 1 to 6 years depending on the lot.
