Technical requirements: Procurement of development construction services for Notting Hill Housing (NHH) development framework. PIN issued to commence soft market testing exercise.
NHH is embarking on an innovative procurement to replace its current construction framework which expires in 2017. At this stage, the scope and quantity of provision required is known in terms of alignment to the development business plan, however, the impact this will have on the structure of the upcoming procurement is as yet unknown. The services required and being procured may increase or decrease as a result of the procurement strategy which is currently being developed.
This PIN is being issued to seek participation in a Soft Market Test to allow shaping of the procurement strategy to ensure a ‘fit for purpose’ innovative framework of constructors to help NHH deliver their development business plan successfully. It is not currently a call for competition.
Where the term contracting authority has been referred to specifically in relation to Notting Hill Housing, this means ‘any parent undertaking of Notting Hill Housing Trust or Notting Hill Home Ownership, and any subsidiary undertaking of Notting Hill Housing Trust or Notting Hill Home Ownership or of such parent undertaking, now or in the future, or any third parties named on the Call-Off’.
It must be noted that the envisaged value of this framework takes into account anticipated third party use of the frameworks. Notwithstanding any statement on this notice to the contrary, this framework will be available for use by NHH (and its associated entities) and any other contracting authority that is a provider of affordable housing that is developing a site within the Greater London area for the inclusion of affordable housing.
