Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Housing, Health & Safety Rating System Review" is being conducted by the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government. This review aims to assess the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), a crucial framework for evaluating residential property conditions. The process is currently in the planning stage, with the deadline for market engagement responses extended to 17:00 on 18th December 2019, previously set for the 13th. The project focuses on research services and will be based in London, United Kingdom.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses, particularly those involved in research services, to contribute to vital changes in housing safety regulations. Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-positioned to compete, as the project aims to engage a diverse supplier market. Participating in this process can enhance their visibility and potentially lead to further contracts following the government’s approval in the New Year.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Housing, Health & Safety Rating System Review

Notice Description

The Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) is a health-based, risk assessment framework for the evaluation of conditions in residential properties. The HHSRS also forms part of the Decent Homes Standard, the minimum standard that social housing should meet. The objectives for this project are to undertake a full review of the HHSRS, providing recommendations to Government on changes that would be necessary to these Regulations for a comprehensive overhaul of the HHSRS, as well as updates to guidance and worked examples. Please note that this was originally scheduled to end at 17:00 on Friday 13th December. However, this has now been extended to 17:00 on Wednesday 18th December 2019. Additional information: We are running this pre-tender market engagement with the aim of warming up the supplier market. However, please note that any subsequent procurement shall only take place early in the New Year once the new government is in place, and subject to ministerial approval. Closing time and date for responses has now been extended from the original deadline of 17.00 on Friday 13th December 2019 to 17:00 on Wednesday 18th December 2019.
