EWS Surveys: PAS9980 Framework User Guide.pdf

The EWS Surveys PAS9980 Framework provides intrusive reviews of External Wall Systems on dwellings and buildings. Services include visual-only inspections, provision of EWS1 Forms, and contractors opening up properties for inspection. Making good is required where opening up has occurred, and a detailed report is provided on the findings of the survey. The framework is valid until August 18, 2025, and has a capacity of £200,000,000.00. The award criteria are Quality (60%) and Cost (40%), and the common procurement vocabulary code is 71315100: Building-fabric consultancy services.

The framework has 200+ suppliers, and clients can use the mini-competition or direct selection method to call off a contract. The direct selection method allows for the selection of the appointee ranked number 1 or any appointee through specific criteria. The mini-competition method lets clients expand beyond the framework's original specification to meet their specific requirements.

The framework benefits include economies of scale, fully compliant procurement, simple tendering process, fully approved supplier network, pre-agreed terms and conditions, established relationship with suppliers, and support throughout the lifetime of the contract. National Framework Partnership is a leading provider of frameworks operating throughout the United Kingdom, with a head office in London and association with the Hyde Group. The company strives to provide the highest quality service by promoting honest and dependable suppliers for the public sector.
