Changes to notice
This notice has been edited. The previous version is still available.
The title and description of the opportunity have been amended to avoid confusion about the Core Services of this framework (Employers Agent). No other changes have been made to the notice or tender documents.
Scope
Description
Home Group (HG) is seeking to establish a framework of suitably qualified and experienced Employer's Agent consultants to support our new build development programme. The scope of projects may vary and may include elements of conversion, refurbishment works, regeneration and supported housing projects.
The Core services required is Employer's Agent (EA). Applicants must be able to demonstrate that EA services are a principal area of expertise and qualified discipline. In addition, applicants bidding for Lot 5 (South) must be able to provide Fire Consultant services through an in-house team and not via a sub-consultant arrangement.
Applicants will also be invited to identify any other consultancy services they can provide in-house, which may be incorporated into future call-off appointments where appropriate. For the purposes of this Framework, these services will be identified as Non-Core services in our tender documentation.
It is intended that framework call-offs will be primarily via Rotation, however a direct award mechanism will be available where pre-defined criteria are met.

Description of how multiple lots may be awarded:
Bidders must choose whether to bid for either the North Regional Lots or the South Regional Lot. Bidders may apply for up to four of the North Regional Lots (Lots 1-4). Alternatively, bidders may apply for the South Regional Lot (Lot 5).

In which case, the contingency Consultant appointed to the applicable Lot may be substituted/added to participate in the Framework call-offs. Contingency consultants will still be required to sign the framework agreement.

Framework operation description
It is intended that framework call-offs will primarily be via Rotation. When a project requirement arises, Home Group will approach the next consultant in the agreed rotation order and issue project brief via the portal setting out the services required. The consultant will be asked to submit a proposal confirming their fee, proposed resource and any key assumptions. Fees must be based on the framework pricing documents.
A Direct Award mechanism will also be available where pre-defined criteria are met, including concerns about performance, capacity, conflicts of interest, urgency, project continuity or where a consultant has specific experience better suited to the project.
Where appropriate, Home Group may also run a mini-tender between framework consultants. This will primarily be used where there is a bespoke requirement or for call-off of Non-Core Services.
