Dear Keith

We refer to your Freedom of Information Request sent via the .$B!F.(BWhat
do they Know.$B!G.(B website and are pleased to answer your request as
follows.

1. How do you procure Construction Consultancy Services?

A) The Council has an in-house capability to provide a number of these
services. Where in-house capacity is exceeded then the Council has a
framework agreement in place to cover the provision of services by:
Architects, Quantity Surveyors, Project Management, Structural Engineers
and Mechanical & Electrical Engineers.

2. How do you procure Construction Contractors?

A) For works up to the value of the EU threshold, the Council sources
construction contractors either via its Approved List of Contractors
(ALOC) or through frameworks to which it has access. For works over the
EU threshold, then the Council would either make use of a framework or
appoint a contractor through an appropriate EU compliant tender process.
Frameworks to which the Council has access include YorBuild or the HCA
Developers framework. Further information on our ALOC can be found at
[1]http://www.bradford.gov.uk/bmdc/business...

3. If by your own framework, please tell me:

a. The titles and content of the relevant frameworks

b. Who is on the current frameworks

c. The start and end dates of the frameworks

d. Any possible extension periods to the frameworks

e. The name and contact email of person responsible for the

frameworks.

A) The information requested above for the consultants framework can be
found in the OJEU notice 2009/S 174-250683 (Copy attached)

I trust that this answers your query and I will be pleased to assist with
any further information that you may require.
