Decision:

Reasons for the decision:

To accelerate the recovery of the Responsive Repairs and Voids service, relating to complex repairs and disrepair works.

 

Alternative options considered:

There are a range of procurement options available to procure providers of these works:

 

·         Competitive tender

·         Mini-competition from a suitable framework or Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS)

·         Direct award from a suitable framework

 

Direct Award from a suitable framework would be the quickest option. Cavendish are part of the PFH DPS for responsive repairs but these do not allow Direct Awards. Cavendish’s presence on these DPS’ do provide additional assurance in regard to their quality and price.
