Procurement for Housing · Housing

In brief

Procurement for Housing has announced plans to buy construction and building maintenance work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £80,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 2 years, up to 4 years with extensions, starting 1 December 2026.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 13 bids per contract for this buyer (from 22 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £80,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

The purpose of this new framework agreement is to provide a comprehensive solution suitable for PfH’s members in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland for the supply and installation of communal door and door entry systems. The framework will be split into 3 Lots based on the material used to construct each door type: Lot 1 – aluminium, Lot 2 - steel and Lot 3 – timber. Each Lot includes survey, design, supply, installation, testing, commissioning and maintenance of the communal entrance door sets including frames, leaves, glazing or infill panels, ironmongery, locking systems, access‑control interfaces, thresholds and sealing. Suppliers will also be required to provide and maintain wired and non-wired door entry systems within each Lot. The framework will not include the provision of fire doors or other types of domestic doors. It is anticipated that the Framework Agreement will be awarded for a period of 2 years, with two optional extension periods of 1 year (2+1+1 = 4 years in total).

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
