UK-London: lift installation work

Passenger lift renewals.
Viridian Housing is seeking expressions of interest from suitably
interested and qualified Lift Contractors who can undertake the renewal of
existing passenger lift cars, controllers and associated equipment, to
tender for membership of a flexible framework agreement under which it
envisages that contracts will be let to Contractors within the framework
for the provision of all or part of these services and the like to social
dwellings, sheltered schemes and supported and special needs housing in
properties (but not limited to) owned or managed by Viridian.
Contractors will be invited to evaluate/price against a schedule of rates
and dwelling archetypes and a model specification and to submit variants
for working in different geographical areas and combination of areas as
Viridian Housing has stock widely distributed across England. Viridian
Housing will subsequently tender through a mini competition between the
framework contractors and enter into individual Contracts with successful
contractors on a geographical basis for a period of up to 4 years with an
option to extend for a further 1 year, subject to satisfactory ongoing
annual performance review. The contractors will be required to provide a
customer focused service and show a commitment to providing an effective
service that provides value for money to Viridian Housing and its
customers. Viridian Housing will require the contractor to cooperate with
them in working towards a partnership approach in service delivery.
Viridian Housing reserves the absolute right to withdraw from this
procurement procedure at any time and for whatever reason without awarding
a contract(s). Applicants shall be responsible for the costs and expenses
they incur as a result of participating in this procurement process.
Viridian Housing and or its advisors shall not be liable for and will not

subsequent tender submission of any applicant or bidder whether they are
successful or not. This shall equally apply in the event that the
procurement process is postponed, cancelled or abandoned by Viridian
Housing at any stage and for whatever reason. Applicants shall be deemed
to have unequivocally accepted this as a condition to precedent to
