Description

BHA intends to appoint a single supplier to provide us with a 10% Stock Condition Survey (approx 200 properties) and Financial Forecasting Data services to be completed by March 24 and for validation and verification of our in-house SCS data till 31 March 29 the contract period.

Total Quantity or Scope

Berwickshire is commissioning a stock condition survey and life cycle costings for 10% of its properties to be carried out by March 24. The remaining surveys will be completed inhouse over a rolling 5-year programme but with support, training, verification and validation over that period being provided externally. This information will enable an informed assessment to be made of the future maintenance, cyclical and investment requirements of our stock over a 30-year period and help shape our Asset Management Strategy. The detailed data provided from this survey will be used to review and refine our planned and cyclical maintenance programmes. The survey will also assist Berwickshire Housing Association to update their current position in relation to the Scottish Housing Quality Standard (SHQS) and the Energy Efficiency Standard for Social Housing (EESSH). The successful consultant will be required to provide a report listing any improvements required to meet SHQS and EESSH. But also, to provide details on recommendations for future investigations or measures to be undertaken to meet the estimated requirements of the new Net Zero Standard. The detailed SCS data provided from the surveys must be provided in a format that can be loaded to MIS Active H via a Microsoft Excel Loader sheet. Copies of the actual survey data will also be required to be provided to BHA for our records in an electronic format.

The Contract will be for a period of 4 years, 4 months; it will initially run for 2 years, 4 months and then will have the option to extend for a further 2 single 12-month periods at The Association’s individual discretion.
