Framework: winning a place puts you on an approved list for future work. It's the entry ticket, not guaranteed work.

In plain English

Cardiff University wants one supplier to survey all internal and external roof and access equipment across its academic and residential estate for structural integrity and compliance, report and rate each asset, and set out costed remedial works. The framework is a list with a single approved supplier running from 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030, so a place on it is the entry ticket to future work, not guaranteed work, as the first-year survey and repairs depend on budget.

Good fit for: Access equipment, working-at-height safety or structural inspection firms that also carry out repair and installation works.

The catch (with the notice's own words):
  • Only one supplier will win the framework establish a framework agreement with one supplier
  • Work depends on budget, so not guaranteed During the 1st year of the framework, there will be a survey commitment and remedial works but this is all dependent on budget.
  • Mostly a works contract with a survey element 78% of the value of this framework is classed as a works framework with an associated survey/service element.

What the buyer says

This Procurement is to establish a framework agreement with one supplier for Roof/Internal access equipment survey and remediation works. 78% of the value of this framework is classed as a works framework with an associated survey/service element. This framework is being established to have all internal and external access equipment surveyed across the academic and residential estate for structural integrity and compliance. The second element would be to provide full reporting and rating of these assets and a remedial scope of works with costings and timeframes attached. During the 1st year of the framework, there will be a survey commitment and remedial works but this is all dependent on budget.
