A new suite of construction frameworks

A new suite of construction frameworks

A Joined up plan

• Join up with the SW and London to create a
  framework for major projects across the South of
  England SCF
• Create a joined up plan with SE7 colleagues for a
  network of regional and local frameworks
• Protect capacity for Hampshire with local
  framework for intermediate projects ICF
• Create new capacity in Hampshire for local
  projects Minor Works Framework

SE SUB REGIONAL FRAMEWORKS
Tier 3 (LCF) 3 Lots (18 contractors) 1 to 1.5m
Tier 2 750k to 6.5m (11 contractors) Tier 3 1
to 750k (11 contractors)
Tier 2 (ICF) 1 Lot (10 contractors) 0.5m to 4m
Tier 3 (Minor Works) Work in progress
Tier 2 750k to 5m (8 contractors) Tier 3 50k
to 750k (8 contractors) Tier 4 1 to 50k (6
contractors)

Complementary frameworks for capacity

• Issues with SEaL framework with interest in
  smaller projects (especially DB)
• Analysis showed problem most acute for projects
  1m to 4m
• Hence two complementary frameworks
• SCF (SE) for projects gt 4m
• 8 contractors
• ICF (Hampshire) for projects 0.5m to 4m
• 10 contractors
• Exactly the same operating model

Principles 2 stage approach
Design
Construction
Construct to agreed lump sum
Contractor selected from framework on OHP, PC
fee, construction staff cost, design ability to
meet client brief and project budget
Integrated team develop designs and costs,
maximise efficiency within budget whilst
finalising package procurement with tier 2 and 3
The HCC approach has been tried and tested since
HCCs first framework in 2004 for the Nursing
Care Programme

Learning - The HCC Feedback

• Frustration with the template approach to the
  Framework Tender
• Complications with Preliminary pricing tied to
  templates
• Preconstruction time based, not output based
• Lack of transparency in preconstruction
• No market intelligence
• Contractor performance variable
• Lack of enforcement of framework requirements

7
New Framework Features

• Specified Contractor duties
• Framework Director
• Framework Account Manager
• Not to exceed rates for OHP, Preconstruction,
  construction and design
• Faster contractor selection process
• Primary school extension secondary school
  solutions priced by all contractors
• Competitive pricing to meet or beat EFA, Scape
• Minimum standards of contractor performance
  across a range of project, performance and social
  value KPIs
• Designed to help authorities implement key
  initiatives such as BIM and Project Bank Accounts
  through signed charters

Principles of Mini Competition 1

• Confirmation of (Questions may be weighted)
• Preference for type of project
• Ability to deliver (capability)
• Capacity of contractor and supply chain
• Ability to add value
• Self scored responses to pre-set criteria,
  supported by word limited written evidence.
  Evaluated by framework manager, who agrees
  outcome with project officer.

12
Outcome of Mini Competition 1

• Preferred outcome is for three contractors to
  proceed to MC2.
• Sensitive to contractor right to appeal
• Sensitive to officer view on self scoring
• May be more than three in MC2
• Framework Manager to feed back to unsuccessful
  contractors

13
Principles of Mini Competition 2

• Cost SCF 20 to 50 ICF 30 TBA
• OHP
• Pre construction fee
• Construction fee
• Design fee
• If applicable and appropriate, may include
  Preliminary items
• Rates may not exceed the tender percentages from
  the price point, but may be less, and will be
  converted to lump sums based on the construction
  value
