Description

The Council's joint venture partner NPS Norwich Ltd (NPSN) manages the maintenance and repair of the authority's social housing property portfolio which includes communal areas (estate aesthetics). In order to maintain the property stock in good condition it is necessary to undertake repairs and maintenance as appropriate. The council identified 12 communal areas that required attention as soon as possible. Therefore a small, interim contract was processed up to 30 September 2021 (from 01 October, a larger 2 year contract will be processed and will be listed as a separate contract). The interim contract was procured via Eastern Procurement Ltd (EPL) who are a not-for-profit organisation offering specialist compliant framework agreements, social landlords and other public sector bodies, predominantly in the Eastern region. The council are owner members of EPL and work closely with them to create bespoke procurement frameworks. The frameworks promote value for money for the council and also include SMEs and local suppliers. Following a previous, recent benchmarking exercise, the supplier offering the best value for money who could deliver the works was selected via a direct award.
