The City of Edinburgh Council’s (the “Council”) intends to create a Gas Engineering Works Framework Agreement. The Framework Agreement will support delivery of inspection, servicing, maintenance, repair, installation, and associated works across a range of gas systems. Works will primarily be undertaken within domestic housing stock owned or managed by the Council. The Framework Agreement will be split by locality, with Contractors restricted from holding both installation and maintenance lots in the same area, to mitigate concentration risk and ensure resilience of service delivery.

Lot 1A – Installation / Replacement (East)

As part of The City of Edinburgh Council’s (the Council) requirement to ensure that tenants have sufficient heating in their properties, Contractors will be required to carry out heating system replacement in Council owned domestic properties in various locations within Edinburgh. The work shall generally involve the emergency replacement of gas boilers and the installation of new full system heating systems as required, including all associated works, in occupied or empty houses. Boilers will be replaced on a like for like basis as far as reasonably possible, e.g. a combi boiler will be replaced by a combi boiler. It is anticipated that approximately 30% of the new installations will be boiler only installations. The work will take place in traditional and non-traditional construction type houses in low rise, tenement and high-rise blocks.

Lot 2A – Maintenance / Repair / Servicing (East)

The City of Edinburgh Council (“the Council”) requires Contractors to undertake repairs and maintenance works under a Framework Agreement covering routine annual maintenance and servicing of domestic and commercial gas installations. Generally, the work will be carried out in domestic properties owned by the Council; however, the Council also reserves the right to use this Framework Agreement in all other relevant areas of the Council’s business such as commercial properties, should the need occur.
