Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Citizen Housing Group Ltd procured Decarbonisation Works Wave 3, a housing construction and whole-house retrofit programme. The work covers the full scope of energy-saving measures and property improvement works needed to complete homes. It forms part of strategic partnership activity with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and the West Midlands Combined Authority’s devolved retrofit programme. Delivery is in the West Midlands. The procurement is categorised as construction work for houses (CPV 45211100). The requirement was placed through the CHIC Healthy Homes framework, Lot 2c Whole House Retrofit, linking the opportunity to suppliers able to deliver coordinated domestic energy-efficiency improvements rather than isolated product supply. It is relevant to building, retrofit, energy-efficiency and housing improvement contractors.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award under the CHIC Healthy Homes framework, using a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. Price was the stated award criterion. Sustainable Building Services (UK) Limited was selected for the Decarbonisation Works – Wave 3 contract, which is recorded as active and valued at £9,000,000. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026. The requirement included an option for further property improvement works where needed to ensure a property is complete. The procurement record shows one bid. The associated tender lot is recorded as cancelled, although the award and contract are recorded as active. The framework was procured under the PCR 2015 regulations and is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award demonstrates demand from Citizen Housing Group for substantial, coordinated whole-house retrofit and housing improvement delivery in the West Midlands. A credible future competitor would need to manage the full range of domestic energy-saving measures, identify and complete additional property works, and deliver finished homes rather than a single trade package. Relevant strengths include construction delivery, retrofit design and installation, building fabric and energy-efficiency expertise, project management across multiple properties, and the capacity to coordinate surveys, works and completion standards. Experience working through public-sector frameworks and with housing providers would help demonstrate readiness for this route to market. The appointed supplier is an SME, indicating that businesses of this scale can compete where they can evidence suitable delivery capacity and capability.
