Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cambridge City Council is currently seeking contractors for the "Void Properties Works" tender as part of an open procurement process within the construction industry. This initiative is aimed at refurbishing void properties within the Council's housing stock of 7,500 properties to prepare them for new tenants. The tender was published on 14th February 2022, and the submission deadline for bids is set for 7th March 2022. The contract period will commence on 1st April 2022 and extend until 1st October 2022, with works allocated to selected contractors on a rotational basis.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for contractors, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in construction and housing refurbishment. The Council intends to appoint three to four contractors to a framework agreement, enabling them to secure a steady flow of work by completing smaller, manageable packages of properties. Businesses with experience in construction work for multi-dwelling buildings and individual houses will be particularly well-suited to compete for this project, helping to enhance their portfolios while contributing to the community's housing needs.
