What the notice says

The Council requires a suitably experienced Contractor to provide major works, roofing repairs, and refurbishment services across its housing stock and associated property portfolio. The purpose of this contract is to provide additional specialist capacity to support the Direct Services Organisation (DSO) in delivering larger, more complex, specialist and higher-value construction projects that fall outside routine responsive repairs and first-time fix activities. The Contractor will work collaboratively with the Council to improve the condition, safety, compliance, energy efficiency and longevity of housing assets. The contract shall operate as a flexible delivery vehicle for both value-based and size-based works packages, including roofing projects, structural repairs, building fabric renewals, compliance-related improvements and investment works. The Council seeks a partner that can demonstrate excellent quality standards, value for money, strong tenant engagement and a collaborative approach to supporting service delivery.
