Description

Alder Hey Children’s Hospital NHS Foundation Trust as the Contracting Authority in partnership with Procure Partnerships has let a National Contractor Framework with a maximum duration of four years, which may be used to award contracts by public sector bodies / 'Contracting Authorities' as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The Framework is designed to align with the ambitions of the Construction Playbook, and to help the public sector deliver on the Government's ambition to 'build back better' bringing together commercial best practice and reform to drive better, faster, greener delivery. Potential Framework users may include Schools, Academies, Colleges, Universities, Blue Light/Emergency Services, NHS Bodies, Local Authorities, Health and Social Care Bodies, Housing Associations, Libraries and Museums, Registered Charities, Government Departments, Leisure Providers, Clinical Commissioning Groups; as more particularly set out in the Contract Notice 2023/S 000-010899 and the subsequent corrigendum notice ref: 2023/S 000-014178 published on 18th May 2023. Users of the Framework will be able to procure works with associated services (e.g. new build, refurbishment, fit out, infrastructure, single site/project works or multisite projects/ programmes of works) thereunder on the basis of established fixed Contractor overhead and profit rates, and hourly rates. Projects may be of Design and Build or Build Only in nature, under a Two Stage or Single Stage procurement route, embracing both NEC and JCT forms of contract, in compliance with the restrictions on and full freedoms for the range of works and building types provided by the CPV codes referenced. CPV codes 71000000 and 44000000 are to be taken as being covered by this procurement only in context of delivering 4500000 construction works. On the same basis, the Framework includes infrastructure works Lots; construction work for pipelines, communication and power lines, for highways, roads, airfields and railways; flatwork. The framework also includes decarbonisation and demolition. Please note details of economic operators provided in this notice refer to their registered address which may differ from their operational address for the purpose of delivering works under this framework. For the avoidance of doubt and as previously communicated, the contract will be concluded in the name of Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust. Alder Hey is the public sector legal entity responsible for hosting the tender process related to the framework award and, on behalf of Alder Hey, Procure Partnerships will manage the operational running of the framework.
