II.1) Scope of the procurement
II.1.1) Title: prj_4859 – MoJ Constructor Services Framework

Reference number: prj_4859
II.1.2) Main CPV code: 45000000
II.1.3) Type of contract: Works
II.1.4) Short Description: The Ministry of Justice (referred to as the MoJ or ‘Authority’ throughout), is intending to identify constructors for frameworks based on three anticipated project value bands between £0-30 million. These are referred to as the MoJ Constructor Services Frameworks or “Frameworks”. Bespoke frameworks have been prepared for each value band. The MoJ Constructor Services Frameworks have a potential future total combined spend of up to £2.5 billion over a five-year duration, with the possibility of £1 billion of additional spend should the Frameworks across all three value bands be extended for a period of two years.

The MoJ Constructor Services Frameworks will be for use across the department and will see contracts awarded to suppliers for the delivery of construction works and related activities. These activities will include, but not be limited to, new build, refurbishment, maintenance and minor works and associated services.
Bespoke frameworks have been prepared for each value band. The three Construction Frameworks are referred to as Framework A, Framework B, Framework C. Frameworks A and B are further broken down into four regions. Each region within each value band is being procured through a different Lot and therefore subject to a separate competition. However, to ease the burden on Bidders bidding for multiple regions within a single value band (Framework) there are specific rules regarding completion of the procurement documents. Please refer to the procurement documents for further information. Framework C will establish a single national framework and is therefore covered by a single Lot.
Framework A – Four (4) Lots (Regions) for the Constructor Services for projects with an anticipated individual value up to £5m. Anticipated total value of this Framework over five (5) years is expected to be £1.116bn. Lots 1 – 4 seek to appoint Constructors to Framework A.
Framework B – Four (4) Lots (Regions) for the Constructor Services for projects with an individual anticipated value between £5,000,001 and £10m. Anticipated total value of this Framework over five (5) years is expected to be £0.751bn. Lots 5 -8 seek to appoint Constructors to Framework B.
Framework C – One (1) national Lot (Region) for the Constructor Services for projects with an individual anticipated value between £10,000,001 and £30m. Anticipated total value of this lot over five (5) years is expected to be £0.625bn. Lot 9 seeks to appoint Constructors to Framework C.
Individual Lots within Framework A, Framework B and Framework C are further defined at the lot levels.
All anticipated spend values indicated in this notice and value identified at section II.1.5 of this notice represent the best current estimate of works to be procured under each Lot. However, the maximum spend under each Lot will include a 10% increase (rounded to the nearest £1m). This 10% is excluded from each anticipated spend figure included within this notice at the Lot level, but is included within the draft Frameworks. There are two reasons why the MOJ considers that a 10% increase is appropriate and proportionate, namely: (1)the Frameworks contain a mechanism whereby alternative lots can be used for work in a particular region(applicable to Framework A and Framework B) for example due to technical issues or supply market constrains at call off levels. It is not possible to predict which work will require to be instructed through alternative regions or (2)spending review (applicable to all three Frameworks). Details are described in the procurement documents.
The scope of the Framework will cover the estates of the following organisations, including their agencies and public bodies:
• Ministry of Justice (MoJ) Corporate
• HM Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS)
• HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS)
• Legal Aid Agency (LAA)
• Office of the Public Guardian (OPG)
• Home Office

• The MoJ environment is difficult to operate within the high security prison environment. Additional requirements for obtaining individual clearances, escort arrangements on secure sites, limited hours available to undertake the works, and the restriction of movement once on site are all factors that can cause delay to a project and take a considerable amount of time to sort out or to initiate the Works).
• Premarket engagement conducted following the issue of a PIN revealed that a larger pipeline and lengthy contract will make any competition more attractive and would provide sufficient comfort to invest in the key account team, Authority specific R&D and establish a dedicated supply chain to deliver the benefits of volume purchasing to the MoJ.
The MoJ is committed to supporting the Government’s drive to open competition and increasing opportunities for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).
The MoJ reserves the right to discontinue at any stage any procurement it commences (which for the avoidance of doubt refers to any one or more or all of the Lots), reject all or any of the bids for the competition and not to appoint any Bidders to one or more Lots.
