Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for planned works and responsive repairs at the Waltham Forest Housing Association (WFHA) has been completed, with TEB Builders Ltd appointed as the supplier. This procurement, managed by Altair Ltd on behalf of WFHA, focuses on delivering maintenance services to social homes within the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The award, dated 7 July 2025, marks the transition to the 'Award' stage of the procurement process. The contract, valued at approximately £3,850,000 over its initial five-year term, has commenced with potential for a two-year extension. The procurement method was 'open' with a 'below threshold - open competition' process, addressing industry categories such as construction work and repair and maintenance services, specifically in the UK region.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and maintenance services, enhancing their portfolio in the public sector. SME-sized companies experienced in high-quality service delivery are particularly well-placed to compete for such contracts, as demonstrated by the successful bid from TEB Builders Ltd, an SME itself. The project aligns with broad opportunities for service providers committed to delivering tenant-focused, reliable, and efficient repair and maintenance services. Businesses embracing WFHA's values of quality, safety, and tenant satisfaction stand to benefit greatly from engaging in similar public contracts.
