Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process for "Housing - Responsive repairs and Void Works" was conducted by Dartford Borough Council, a sub-central public authority in the UK. Located at Civic Centre, Home Gardens, Dartford, this procurement aimed to address maintenance and emergency repair needs of the council’s housing stock. The procurement was initiated through a direct award process, influenced by the Building Safety (Leaseholder Protections) (England) Regulations 2022, and was intended to swiftly select a new contractor following the previous contractor’s insolvency. The contract, valued at £400,000 excluding VAT, was awarded to T.S.G. Building Services PLC, a large enterprise operating from Potters Bar, and was active from 9th July to 31st July 2025.

This procurement presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in repair and maintenance services, particularly those capable of fulfilling urgent and complex repair needs. While T.S.G. Building Services PLC is a large firm that secured this contract, small to medium-sized enterprises offering competitive expertise in similar service categories within the UK regions might find future opportunities by aligning themselves with the council’s requirements. Companies aiming to scale their operations in public sector tenders can particularly benefit from understanding the direct award procurement process and maintaining readiness for urgent tenders to ensure rapid mobilisation and service delivery.
