Summary of the contracting process

Citizen Housing Group Ltd procured energy-efficiency works for properties in the United Kingdom. The requirement combines ECO4-funded solar photovoltaic supply and installation with a wider programme of energy-saving measure upgrades funded through the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund. The work is classified as construction, specifically solar panel roof-covering work. It covers both the installation of low- and zero-carbon technologies and associated energy-efficiency improvements under the wider funded programme. The procurement was arranged by Citizen Housing Group Ltd, a public authority based in Birmingham. The requirement was treated as a single lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. ECO APPROACH LTD was selected to deliver the works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to ECO APPROACH LTD. It used a direct award through the Procure Plus framework for installation of low- and zero-carbon technologies, described as below-threshold and without competition. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026. The award value is £5,000,000 gross, while the active contract value is £4,700,000 gross. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with a possible extension to 31 July 2030. The arrangement includes an initial two-year period and an option to extend for a further year, with scope and value potentially increasing according to the pipeline of Wave 3 work. Performance measures cover complaints, programme delivery, health and safety, and quality.

This award indicates demand from Citizen Housing Group Ltd for suppliers able to deliver funded residential energy-efficiency programmes combining solar photovoltaic installation with broader housing energy-saving upgrades. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in installing low- and zero-carbon technologies, managing a pipeline of property works, and delivering work safely and to an agreed quality standard. Experience of coordinating programmes funded through schemes such as ECO4 and the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund would be relevant to the requirement. Suppliers should also be able to manage resident-facing delivery, because complaints are an agreed performance measure, and demonstrate reliable programme control, health and safety management, and quality assurance across multiple property works.
