PKC13738 - Domestic & Commercial Removals and Storage Framework

Perth and Kinross Council is inviting bids to appoint qualified contractors to a framework agreement that will supply domestic and commercial contents removal and storage services. The procurement is delivered through two distinct lots, one covering domestic properties and the other commercial properties, allowing suppliers to demonstrate competence in the specific types of moves they can undertake. Bidders are not required to offer the full spectrum of services; for example, a small business that specialises in light‑load moves may still qualify and secure a place on the framework.

The framework is designed to provide sufficient capacity to meet the Council’s ordinary and peak demand requirements. Call‑offs will be assessed on the basis of the contractors’ demonstrated capability and capacity as outlined in their technical responses. Awarding will be based on a combined score of quality and price, with quality weighted at 30 % and price at 70 %. The framework will recur, with new frameworks advertised before the current one expires, and the current tender does not allow variants or options.

All contracted services must comply with the detailed specifications contained in the framework documentation.

Perth and Kinross Council (The Purchaser) is seeking to appoint suitably qualified and experienced Contractors as suppliers to a framework agreement to provide Domestic and Commercial Contents Removals and Storage as set out in the specification document.
Bidders should note that they do not have to be able to perform all the different types of services to gain a place on the framework. For example, a small business who only has capacity to perform small load moves will not be disadvantaged. The Technical response will provide the bidders with an opportunity to select the types of moves they have capacity and capability to perform. This information will be used by the Purchaser for assessing the Suppliers capability and capacity to perform the services at the Call Off stage.
