Summary of the contracting process

The West Kent Housing Association, a sub-central government public authority based in Sevenoaks, United Kingdom, has completed the procurement process for the provision of Resident Decant and Removals Services. This direct procurement was below threshold and conducted without competition, resulting in the award of the contract to Mr R Perrin, trading as Nice & Easy. The contract was signed on 16th September 2025 and will be active from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2030, with a potential extension of up to three years depending on performance. The contract is valued at £200,000 and focuses on services within the storage and retrieval sectors, particularly supporting the Decants and Allocations teams with ad hoc requests related to storage and transport to storage services.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in removals and storage services, particularly those capable of providing flexible and responsive solutions for housing associations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in logistical support and a proven track record in handling public sector contracts would find this opportunity well-suited for fostering business growth and reinforcing their position within the industry. Being engaged with public authorities in similar procurement processes could lead to further contracts and expansion into related service offerings.
