Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Uttlesford District Council commissioned works to deliver the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund and associated building completion works. The requirement concerns decarbonisation and investment works for the council’s social housing, delivered in the Uttlesford area. It was a works procurement rather than a supply or consultancy contract. The council was the buyer and the requirement was delivered through the Prosper UK Decarbonisation & Investment Works Framework. The procurement covered building completion activity alongside measures funded by the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund. The council is based at its offices on London Road, Saffron Walden, and the requirement relates to its housing estate and investment programme. This is relevant to contractors undertaking housing improvement, energy-efficiency and associated building works for local authorities.

The procurement is complete and an active award was made to Aspect Group Services Ltd. The contract was signed on 3 November 2025 for £6,400,000, although no contract end date is recorded. Uttlesford District Council used a limited procedure, awarding without prior publication of a competition because the requirement was called off through the Prosper UK Decarbonisation & Investment Works Framework. The award was evaluated on price. The published procurement covered one framework call-off, and the associated lot is marked cancelled even though the award is active. One bid was recorded. No separate award values or contract periods are provided. The successful supplier is a large business based in Norwich. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award indicates substantial council demand for social-housing decarbonisation and related building completion works, delivered through a framework call-off rather than an openly advertised competition. A competitor seeking similar work from Uttlesford District Council would need access to the relevant Prosper UK framework route, or a credible route into any successor arrangement. It would also need to deliver housing decarbonisation and investment works at the scale associated with a major local-authority programme, alongside general building completion activity. Commercial credibility would depend on presenting a competitive price, since price was the stated award criterion, and on demonstrating the operational capacity to coordinate works across the council’s social-housing requirements. Contractors combining retrofit and energy-efficiency delivery with broader building capability are the clearest fit for this buyer’s recorded requirement.
