Summary of the contracting process

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG) is preparing a service contract for its residential housing portfolio in Wythenshawe, Manchester. The work will cover mould identification surveys, diagnostic investigations, reporting and associated remedial works, supporting the identification, treatment and prevention of damp and mould. Services will apply to both tenanted homes and void properties between tenancies. The procurement is for building installation repair and maintenance services, including specialist inspection and remediation of damp and mould issues. Suppliers should be able to provide an integrated service that links survey findings, diagnosis, written reporting and practical remedial work across housing properties managed by WCHG.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a preliminary market engagement exercise intended to inform the scope and procurement strategy for a future contract; it is not an invitation to tender. WCHG expects the future contract to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with a possible extension or renewal allowing delivery until 31 December 2031. The buyer expects to use supplier feedback to understand market capabilities, service delivery models, solutions and innovations before finalising its approach. Market engagement is scheduled to run until 30 July 2026. The contract is planned as one lot. No contract value, procurement procedure or evaluation criteria have been set out at this stage.

The work is likely to suit housing maintenance contractors, building surveyors, damp and mould specialists, environmental inspection providers and firms able to combine investigation with remedial building work. Relevant suppliers will need practical capability in identifying mould, diagnosing damp-related problems, producing clear reports and carrying out associated repairs or treatment. Experience across occupied residential properties and void homes will be useful, as delivery must accommodate both tenant circumstances and properties between tenancies. Businesses with established service models for preventing recurring damp and mould, and with solutions or innovations that improve identification, treatment and prevention, are well placed to contribute to the market engagement and prepare for the future contract.
