Summary of the contracting process

South Kesteven District Council has awarded a contract for void property repair and maintenance work across its housing stock of approximately 6000 dwellings. The contract, titled "Voids Works South Kesteven District Council," falls under the Repair and Maintenance Services industry category and will be carried out in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The Welland Procurement Unit served as the buying organisation, and the procurement followed an open procedure above the threshold. The contract period is from 1st February 2025 to 31st January 2030, with an estimated contract value of £10,000,000. The award stage for this procurement has been completed as of 19th February 2025, with key contractors Foster Property Maintenance Limited and Gratton Construction Limited selected for execution.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in property maintenance and repair services. Given the high annual volume of void works covering both routine and major repairs, companies with a robust operational capacity to manage a rolling geographic batch allocation system will find this contract advantageous for business growth. Additionally, the split of work between two contractors, with provisions for concurrent work periods during high demand, ensures a steady and equitable distribution of tasks. SME businesses are encouraged to consider involvement, although the current awarded contracts suggest that companies of substantial size or those capable of scaling operations will be well-suited to meet the council's requirements effectively.

Notice Title

Voids Works South Kesteven District Council

Notice Description

South Kesteven District Council invited tenders to carry out void property repair and maintenance work to its housing stock which is circa 6000 dwellings. The Council plans to employ two contractors to deliver the works across its district covering the towns of Grantham, Bourne, Stamford, The Deepings and surrounding villages. Currently SKDC completes around 150 to 200 "major" work voids per annum. It is envisaged that the works will be put into batches on a geographic basis where possible and subsequently passed to the contractor. This will be done on a rolling basis of contractor 1 then contractor 2 etc... to ensure the works are split fairly, however during periods of high demand, works may be passed to both contractors concurrently. The annual spend for the void works will be split equally between the two contractors as far as practicable. (this is subject to satisfactory performance of each contractor)
