title: Repairs and Maintenance DPS

his opportunity has been listed by LHC Procurement Group on behalf of our regional business:
 Scottish Procurement Alliance (WPA)
 This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is designed to facilitate the procurement of repair, maintenance, and associated services across multiple disciplines, ensuring a structured and efficient response to urgent and planned works.
 This new DPS will be for the provision of repair and maintenance service for the public sector for use by:
 - Education
 - Healthcare
 - Emergency Services
 - Housing and residential
 - Public Sector buildings
 The DPS is divided into fourteen lots, split between four primary workstreams, each containing specific lots tailored to address key areas of building maintenance.
 Workstream 1 focuses on the building envelope and structural integrity, covering roofing repairs, external works, internal repairs including damp and mould, and the maintenance of windows, doors, and other openings.
 Workstream 2 addresses mechanical and electrical (M&E) systems, ensuring the operational efficiency of plumbing, heating and cooling, electrical systems, lifts, and detection systems such as CCTV and fire alarms.
 Workstream 3 provides environmental and infestation management, including property protection, pest control, and drainage solutions to maintain safety and hygiene.
 Workstream 4 encompasses multi-disciplinary services, allowing for an integrated approach to complex projects covering multiple areas within a single contract.
 To ensure adaptability, the DPS retains the flexibility to introduce additional lots in response to emerging industry requirements, as permitted under PCR 2015, provided that such modifications do not significantly alter the scope of the procurement. This ensures the DPS remains responsive to market developments, technological advancements, and regional needs, thereby offering contracting authorities a comprehensive and compliant procurement solution for a wide range of building maintenance and operational challenges.

 - equality and diversity initiatives;
 - to make sub-contracting opportunities available to SMEs, the third sector and supported businesses;
 - supply-chain development activity;
 - to build capacity in community organisations;
 - educational support initiatives.
 All organisations appointed will be expected to work with LHCPG and our clients to help identify, deliver and capture social value outcomes associated with the delivery of projects they are award through this DPS.
 Where a client may not have already set out any social value requirements, then LHCPG would expect the appointed company to raise this with the client and jointly seek opportunities to evidence social value on each project through available data and pre/post works surveying.
 The following metrics are examples of the social value outcomes implemented for RM DPS, however this is subject to change and a final suite will be discussed and applied as part of the onboarding and go-live of the DPS. LHCPG will work with appointed companies to ensure that all SV and project reporting requirements are proportional and achievable.

Re SPD question 4B.6 West Lothian Council will use Dun and Bradstreet’s DBAi financial reporting system to assess the financial stability of tenderers. Tenderers with a Failure Score of 50 or above on the DBAi system will be deemed to have evidenced satisfactory financial stability. Please note that 49 or less will not be considered as having met this criteria. If a tenderer has a Failure Score of less than 50, the tenderer may be required to submit their last three years accounts.
 In the event that the tenderer is not required to publish accounts and therefore does not have a Dun & Bradstreet or equivalent rating, tenderers should be able to provide financial accounts when requested. The council will then conduct an analysis of the accounts to ensure that there is no significant financial risk. Please note that if you intend on attaching 2 years accounts, these must include financial data over a 3-year period.
 It is recommended that candidates review their own Dun & Bradstreet Score in advance of submitting their tender. If following this review tenderers consider that the Dun & Bradstreet Score does not reflect their current financial status, details of this should be provided, complete with evidence of a good high street credit rating (the equivalent of Dun & Bradstreet score 50) from a recognised credit referencing agency. The council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer’s financial status.
 In the event that a firm does not meet the financial criteria for consideration but has a parent company that does, the firm may still be eligible for consideration where their Tender Submission is supported by a Parent Company Guarantee.
 Should after review of the financial evaluation the tenderer fail, then the tender submission may be rejected.
