Summary of the contracting process

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group Limited, a public authority under sub-central government classification, is in the planning stage for a new Cyclical External & Internal Communal Paint and Repair contract, aiming to replace its current contract by Spring 2026. This tender focuses on works within the painting and glazing industry as well as repair and maintenance services, with procurement activities spanning multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, and others. A market engagement event scheduled via The Chest is expected to conclude by 17th December 2025. The contract, valued at £4.8 million, is set to commence on 1st May 2026 and run until 30th April 2029, with possible extension up to 2031.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly in the sectors of painting, glazing, repair, and maintenance services. SMEs are encouraged to participate, as the contract's suitability requirements explicitly invite smaller enterprises to compete, fostering diversification and innovation within these industries. Companies that can provide both external and internal communal paint and repair services across multiple regions of the UK may find this procurement process advantageous in building long-term partnerships with a reputable housing group. Leveraging this opportunity can position businesses for sustained growth in public sector contracts.
