Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk Coastal District Council and Waveney District Council procured general building materials for their social landlord service. The requirement is for goods used to support the councils’ housing and property service, with delivery across the East of England. The procurement is classified as building materials (CPV 44111000). It is a council-led requirement rather than a works or construction contract: the opportunity concerns supplying materials to support the buyer’s ongoing social housing responsibilities. Businesses supplying a broad range of general building materials, with the distribution capability to serve locations across the East of England, are the most relevant comparators for this requirement.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective call-off from the PFH framework. Travis Perkins was awarded the contract on 12 May 2026 for £800,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 12 May 2026 to 11 May 2029. The tender submission deadline was 11 March 2026 at 16:00 UTC. The procurement was for goods and the tender was marked complete, with the award active. The stated route was a call-off from a framework agreement, so competition was conducted among framework participants rather than through a new open tender. The contract is intended to serve the councils’ social landlord service across the East of England.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement provides a clear indication of the councils’ demand for general building materials to support social housing. A credible future competitor would need to supply a broad building-materials range and provide dependable distribution across the East of England. The selected supplier was a large established materials business, indicating that operational scale, stock availability and reliable fulfilment are commercially relevant, alongside the ability to work through the PFH framework call-off route. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so smaller suppliers with strong regional coverage, suitable trade supply arrangements and the capacity to support a council housing service may also be well placed when similar demand returns.
