Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Stock Condition Surveys (housing properties)" initiated by Norwich City Council has reached the award stage, with emphasis on maintaining social housing in line with the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) standards. The procurement falls under the category of architectural, engineering, and surveying services, specifically building surveying services, and targets the East of England region. A further competition was conducted with three suppliers under the selective procurement method, using Lot 1 of the Estate Management Framework (RM6168) by Crown Commercial Services (CCS), which favoured quality at 40% and price at 60%. The sole supplier bid from SAVILLS (UK) LIMITED met the criteria and was awarded following the framework guidelines. The contract commenced on 1st May 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st May 2026.

This tender provides lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in condition surveys and estate management, particularly those possessing expertise in resident engagement and local geographical knowledge. Businesses focused on architectural and surveying services have the potential for growth by fulfilling requirements to assess housing properties for retention, refurbishment, or disposal. While the procurement was awarded to a large enterprise, small and medium-sized enterprises are encouraged to engage in future similar opportunities, fostering partnerships and leveraging expertise within the estate management sector.

Notice Title

Stock Condition Surveys (housing properties)

Notice Description

Norwich City Council needs to maintain its social housing stock in good condition, as required by the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH). A single supplier was sought to undertake Condition Survey Services for: External checks, Internal checks, full HHSRS assessments, general external and internal structure surveys of blocks of flats, maisonettes and communal areas, individual asset appraisals with a recommendation to either retain, refurbish or dispose. All tasks require a high level of resident engagement and a good knowledge of the local area. A further competition process was undertaken with 3 suppliers utilising Lot 1 (Total estate management) of the Estate Management Framework (RM6168) with Crown Commercial Services (CCS) based on 40% quality and 60% price. Only one bid was received but as the sole bid was of high quality and the price was within the available budget, the award to that supplier is compliant with framework guidelines.
