What is being bought

Published requirement description

IDS seeks to appoint a single scaffolding contractor to provide safe, compliant, and responsive scaffolding and temporary access services across its residential property portfolio. The scope includes design (where TG20 compliance is not applicable), erection, hire, inspection, adaptation, dismantling, and related protection measures for planned works, responsive repairs, emergency make-safe activity, and minor ad‑hoc roofing/gutter repairs delivered by the appointed contractor's operatives. Services must comply with TG20:21, BS EN 12811, and the Work at Height Regulations, and be delivered within occupied residential environments with robust resident protection, customer care, and performance reporting. The contract term is 2 years with an option to extend by 1 year, subject to satisfactory performance and agreement.

How bids were scored

Lot awarding rule: The contract will be awarded to the tenderer that achieves the highest overall score following evaluation. Submissions will be assessed using a weighted evaluation model comprising 40% quality and 60% price. Quality will be evaluated against the published quality questions and scoring criteria, and price will be evaluated based on the total tendered cost. Each tenderer's quality and price scores will be combined to determine their final weighted score. The bidder with the highest total weighted score will be recommended for award.

    IDS is committed to ensuring a transparent, fair, and consistent procurement process. Before the publication of the Tender Notice, IDS will undertake proportionate supplier engagement to understand market capacity, capability, risk, and pricing drivers relating to the provision of scaffolding services. Engagement will be conducted in line with the Procurement Act 2023.

    Suppliers are welcome to contact the IDS Procurement Manager at procurement@ids.org.uk for questions regarding the procurement process or specification requirements. Where required, a Teams meeting will be scheduled to enable the process.

    Following completion of market engagement activities, IDS will publish a UK4 Tender Notice to formally launch the procurement. All required tender documents, including specification, pricing schedule, terms and conditions, evaluation criteria, and submission instructions, will be available online free of charge.

    Suppliers who do not engage in this process are still eligible to participate in the procurement.
