UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Clarion Housing Group sought services for preparing vacant housing units for reoccupation and sale or marketing. The requirement covered four regional lots across the north and south of England. Lots 1 and 2 concerned regular inspections, maintenance and management of defects in vacant units, including ad hoc defect repairs. Lots 3 and 4 concerned sparkle cleaning for vacant units, show homes and marketing suites, including carpet cleaning and cleaning of external building areas. This is a services procurement suited to building inspection, property maintenance, defect repair and specialist cleaning businesses. Suppliers could pursue the inspection and maintenance work, the cleaning work, or the relevant regional lot. Clarion Housing Group is the buying organisation and the services were intended for its housing stock and associated marketing properties.

The process reached tender: Clarion invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission allowed. It was divided into four lots: north and south inspection, maintenance and defect management, and north and south cleaning. The tender deadline was 19 June 2026 at 5pm; enquiries closed on 12 June 2026 at 5pm, and the intended award decision date was 31 July 2026. The planned contract period for every lot was 14 August 2026 to 20 August 2027, with an option to extend by one further year to 18 August 2028. Estimated lot values were £363,000 for north maintenance, £255,500 for south maintenance, £300,000 for north cleaning and £181,500 for south cleaning. Evaluation weighted quality at 60% and price at 40%. Clarion cancelled the procurement because its strategy changed to introduce further lots and provide more information for suppliers.

This opportunity suited small and medium-sized enterprises, with separate regional and service-based lots allowing focused bids rather than requiring one supplier to deliver the entire requirement. Maintenance bidders needed capability in inspecting vacant housing, carrying out regular maintenance, managing defects and completing ad hoc repairs across the relevant region. Cleaning bidders needed experience in sparkle cleaning of vacant homes, show homes and marketing suites, together with carpet cleaning and external building cleaning. The requirement would suit contractors with operational capacity across multiple properties, reliable inspection and response arrangements, and the ability to manage work consistently in either the north or south. Selection required economic and technical compliance with the tender requirements, while quality was more heavily weighted than price. The procurement was cancelled before an award was made.
