Technical requirements: The London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (the Authority) is looking to conduct a competitive procurement process with a view to establishing a Framework agreement with three (3) Multi-Disciplinary Professional Services companies (the ‘Provider(s)’) to provide services over a 4 year period. The intention is that the Multi-Disciplinary Professional Services shall be provided by Building Surveying and Building Services led Provider(s) with a remit for carrying out professional services for projects up to 1 000 000 GBP in construction value, although with the flexibility to exceed this limit as required.
It is anticipated that the Framework Agreement will require the following professional services: Project Management; cost consultancy; contract administration; Principal Designer; multi- disciplinary design team services; BREEAM services; Clerk of Works; and other professional services as required.
The projects will involve primarily fire stations, but also other non-fire station premises such as offices, training facilities and any other ancillary accommodation in the estate. The following types of projects are a non-exhaustive list of Instructions or Call Off Contracts that the Authority anticipates awarding under the Framework Agreement over the subsequent duration: Redecorations; refurbishments; new builds; appliance bay doors; new gates; roofing works; window replacements; new heating systems, electrical rewires, building management system upgrades (e.g. fire alarm); renewable energy projects; yard resurfacing and other relevant projects.
The anticipated total value of fees based on previous years and over the four (4) year Framework Agreement is 3 500 000 GBP. These fees are anticipated to be spread across the three (3) appointed Providers. The Authority warrants no exclusivity to the Providers and does not guarantee any quantum of fees to the Providers.
This Framework Agreement may be accessed by other Functional Bodies of the Greater London Authority with the consent of the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority.
The Authority will incorporate a standstill period of at least 10 calendar days when information on the award of the Contract is communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the Authority before the Contract is entered into. Applicants have 2 working days from notification of the award to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before expiry of the standstill period.
Such additional information should be requested from the address in I.1) above. If an appeal regarding the award of a Contract has not been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (R 86/87) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action to the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).

Eligibility requirements: Selection criteria as stated in the procurement documents.

Award value: 3500000
