Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Procurement for Housing (PfH), a buying group for social housing organisations, is setting up a framework agreement (a pre-approved list of suppliers) for new and innovative service providers, which member housing organisations can then buy from without running their own full tender. The notice mostly describes PfH itself, so the exact services covered are not clear from this text and should be checked in the full tender documents.

What the buyer wants

• Apply to join the framework by completing PfH's supplier questionnaire, showing your business details, financial standing and relevant experience. • Demonstrate that your products or services suit social housing organisations, particularly innovative or technology-led approaches that improve efficiency. • Provide evidence of insurance, data protection compliance and any required certifications, then respond to any follow-up clarification questions.

Likely requirements

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

The framework's £250 million estimated value and its focus on established social housing buyers mean that proof of financial strength, insurance, security certification and a track record with housing organisations could shut out very small or newly formed businesses.

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.
