Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Retrofit Installers" tender initiated by Great Places Housing Group Limited has been withdrawn as of 28 April 2026. The buying organisation is a public authority under sub-central government, based in Manchester, United Kingdom. The procurement process was in the tender stage before its cancellation. This initiative aimed to secure contractors for delivering retrofit measures to properties with EPC ratings of D and below, involving whole house and component retrofit works. The framework included both the North West and South Yorkshire as project locations, with the contract foreseen to be executed through a selective procurement method under either PCR2015 or PA2023 framework. Originally, this contract was planned to span a three-year period from June 2025 to June 2028.

Despite its withdrawal, the initial tender presented potential business growth opportunities for firms specialising in construction and environmental improvements, particularly those involved in refurbishment and building alteration work. Businesses engaged in electrical installation and insulation works would have been well-positioned to compete, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), which were deemed suitable under the project requirements. The cancellation notice underscores the importance of timely funding receipt and adherence to legislative frameworks in public procurement processes.
