Summary of the contracting process

Watford Community Housing (WCH), with the aid of Pretium Frameworks Ltd, has successfully established a comprehensive four-year Maintain Framework focused on construction and repair works throughout the UK. The process, driven by a selective procurement method, spans nine geographical regions and multiple value bands, facilitating numerous public sector entities, including social housing providers and local authorities, with access to these services. Key industry classifications involve various facets of construction work, complementing the primary focus on repair and maintenance services. Notable dates include the issuance of the tender on 20th February 2025 and the contract awards primarily signed on 20th May 2026, with maximum flexibility built into the framework to address various procurement needs across the UK.

The scope of this framework offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses, especially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The division of the framework into 18 lots, including national and regional scopes, allows various suppliers to bid for up to nine lots concurrently, fostering competitive participation. The evaluation criteria, emphasizing quality and cost, cater well to seasoned contractors specializing in repair and maintenance services of building installations. SME contractors are particularly encouraged to engage in this tender due to the framework's structuring, which supports flexibility and maximizes the potential for capturing a broad spectrum of works across both small and large-scale projects throughout the UK.
