Aster Group Limited ("Aster") has a requirement for three contractors to provide External Decoration services, including but not limited to: • Redecoration of all previously painted external surfaces and internal common parts. • Minor external fabric repairs including: o Renewal of fascias and soffits where required (to match existing). o Renewal of timber canopies where required. o Repointing of brick work. • Minor prior to paint repairs. • Timber window repairs. • Renewal of communal floor finishes where required. Aster's requirement is across its full geographical coverage and will be split into the following lots with the corresponding approx. number of properties: • Lot 1 (East) o Berkshire - 205 o Hampshire - 8416 o Oxfordshire - 612 o Wiltshire (incl. Gloucestershire) - 8606 • Lot 2 (London and Outer Areas) o London - 1969 o Surrey - 441 o Sussex - 736 • Lot 3 (West) o Dorset - 803 o Somerset (incl. Bristol) - 5339 o Devon and Cornwall - 3208 NB: The property numbers are approximate and may make up multi dwelling properties. Suppliers may submit bids for multiple lots; however, only one supplier will be awarded each lot. Where a supplier achieves the highest ranking in more than one lot, Aster Group reserves the right to determine which lot will be awarded to that supplier. In such circumstances, the lot not awarded to the highest-ranked supplier will instead be awarded to the supplier ranked second for that lot. Aster's procurement for external decorations is anticipated to be a single stage tender process and will be undertaken via CHIC's All Under One Roof' DPS (Lot 20 - Decoration Services). The evaluation criteria is anticipated to be 60/40 (price/quality). Aster has a target start date of May 2027, by which point mobilisation should be completed (TUPE is applicable) and contractors are fully onboarded to Aster's Approved Supplier List and familiar with its Contractor Portal. By the contract start date, the contractor should ensure a fully resourced programme is made available to Aster. The form of contract Aster anticipated to contract with is the JCT Measured Term Contract (2024 edition) containing Aster amendments.
