Southend on Sea City Council is seeking to engage an experienced and qualified contractor to fulfil the provision of responsive and quoted works for electrical installations to a portfolio of Public Buildings, Schools and leased Buildings within the city of Southend on Sea. The contract will include providing a responsive service including 2-hour attendance to some buildings to faults reported through the Southend-on-Sea City Council repairs help desk. Quoted remedial and upgrade works up to the value of £5,000.00 will be delivered via this contract.
All potential contractors must be registered with a recognised competent person scheme such as NICEIC, NAPIT or equivalent. The duration of the contract is for 3 years with the option to extend for up to an additional 2 years. The contract will be let under the JCT Measured Term Contract 2024 Edition.
Please Note: This government's English Devolution White Paper, Power and Partnership: Foundations for Growth published on 16 December 2024, states that the government wants all remaining two tier areas in England to be eventually restructured into single-tier unitary authorities and is termed Local Government Reorganisation (LGR). This reorganisation is part of a broader devolution strategy to simplify local government structures, save public funds and improve local accountability. LGR will impact the County of Essex as it currently operates a two-tier Local Government structure.
It is anticipated that during the life of this contract/ framework, the LGR process will commence and/or progress potentially impacting this contract. Impacts may include, but not limited to, modifications such as a transfer of the legal entity you currently contract with, significant increases and/ or decreases in the value/ volume of services required due to the change in size / scope of the Contracting Authority and/or changes to the scope of the nature of services required. Although any contract scope changes should broadly relate to the nature of the existing scope, new services of a related nature may be required that were not previously included.
The scale and exact timing of the changes are unknown at this point, but it is known that LGR will impact the County of Essex. All suppliers who work with the Authority need to be aware and where possible, work with the Authority to adapt to any changes/ modifications as required to ensure smooth transition and continuity.
