Framework

What the notice says

This Procurement is to establish a framework agreement with one supplier for Roof/Internal access equipment survey and remediation works. 78% of the value of this framework is classed as a works framework with an associated survey/service element. This framework is being established to have all internal and external access equipment surveyed across the academic and residential estate for structural integrity and compliance. The second element would be to provide full reporting and rating of these assets and a remedial scope of works with costings and timeframes attached. During the 1st year of the framework, there will be a survey commitment and remedial works but this is all dependent on budget.
