Summary of the contracting process

Peabody Trust is procuring a framework for health and safety audit services, covering health and safety consultancy and auditing work. The requirement is for provider or providers with extensive experience in the health and safety sector and an established reputation as reliable, knowledgeable health and safety auditors. It is a services opportunity intended to support Peabody’s health and safety assurance requirements. The procurement covers health and safety services and auditing services. The framework is intended to appoint the two highest-ranked suppliers. Peabody Trust is the buying organisation. The requirement is suitable for organisations able to deliver professional audit services for a large public-sector housing provider, although the procurement information does not identify a specific delivery site.

The process has reached tender: Peabody invited offers through a one-stage open competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023, using the Light Touch Regime. Enquiries had to be submitted by 28 August 2026 at 17:00, and offers by 10 September 2026 at 12:00. The award decision was due by 21 September 2026 at 23:59. The framework value is estimated at £480,000 gross. It comprises one lot and is intended to run from 1 October 2026 to 1 October 2029, with an optional further 12-month extension available until 1 October 2030. Evaluation is weighted 75% qualitative, 20% price and 5% social value. Electronic submissions in English are allowed.

This opportunity suits health and safety auditing firms with substantial sector experience, a demonstrable record of dependable professional advice and the technical knowledge to carry out robust audits. It is also suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so smaller specialist providers can compete alongside larger organisations. Suppliers should be prepared to work within a framework arrangement, with opportunities to compete again when requirements are called off. The framework uses reopening of competition, meaning appointed suppliers may need to respond to later competitions rather than receive all work automatically. Strong qualitative capability is particularly important because quality carries most of the evaluation weighting, while bidders must also show how they will provide social value and offer competitive pricing.
