Tender: Care & Repair Open Framework for Domestic Adaptations and Minor Aids – Peterborough City Council

About

Peterborough City Council is seeking suppliers for an Open Framework, procured under the Procurement Act 2023, to provide domestic adaptations including extensions, internal alterations, level-access showering facilities and associated works, and to install minor aids and adaptations in domestic properties. The work, delivered with the Home Service Delivery Care and Repair Team, aims to help elderly, vulnerable and disabled adults and children in the Peterborough unitary authority area live independently, warm and safe, with most work in the city and some in surrounding areas. Adaptations will often be funded by Disabled Facility Grants, level-access shower works may be funded privately or by charities, benevolent funds, Adult Social Care or Children's Services, and minor aids (predominantly under £1,000) are funded from Adult Social Care budgets; the Authority intends the Open Framework to run for up to eight years with reopening provisions under Section 49 of the Procurement Act 2023, and seeks responsive, locally based, suitably qualified contractors who can deliver high-quality work promptly with minimum disruption to clients.
