Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Procurement for Housing is setting up a framework agreement, which is a pre-approved list of suppliers that housing providers and other public bodies can buy from without running their own full tender. It is aimed at innovative companies offering new technologies, products and services that help social housing providers and the wider public sector. The framework works across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

What the buyer wants

• Apply to join the framework by showing that your innovative product or service meets the buyer's criteria and can deliver clear benefits to social landlords. • Demonstrate that your solution works in practice, or has a credible route to being used, and explain how it addresses current or future challenges in social housing. • Be ready to win individual work from Members later through mini-competitions, so keep your pricing, case studies and service details ready to show.

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Most small businesses would be excluded if they cannot show evidence that their product or service works and has been trialled or used, or if they fail the financial, insurance or data security checks.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
