Open Framework Agreement for Housing Renewals & Adaptations

The City & County of Swansea is establishing an Open Framework Agreement for Housing Renewals and Adaptations, identified by solicitation number CCS/25/366. The framework is divided into four distinct lots: Lot A1 for medium-sized internal disabled facilities adaptations primarily involving bathroom conversions (£8,000 to £13,000 per project); Lot A2 for medium-sized external adaptations such as ramps and handrails (£3,500 to £10,000 per project); Lot B for large-scale adaptations including structural alterations and extensions (average £36,000 per project); and Lot C for housing repair loan works including roofing and damp proofing (maximum £35,000 per project). The total estimated value of the framework is £38,000,000 excluding VAT, with specific lot estimates ranging from £8,000,000 to £14,400,000. The agreement is structured in three successive phases, starting with an initial two-year term from 2027 to 2029, with potential extensions leading to an estimated end date of January 31, 2035. Work is allocated to contractors on a rotational basis according to their evaluation ranking. Award criteria are heavily weighted toward quality, focusing on organization structure, health and safety, customer care, case study implementation, call-off compliance, and local subcontracting. Contractors who refuse or fail to accept two separate call-off offers will be removed from the framework. Tenders must be submitted via the eTenderWales portal by November 30, 2026, using ITT - 128239.
