Summary of the contracting process

Old Etonian Housing Association Limited sought a housing management agent to take on its housing management and maintenance services. The successful provider was to be a Registered Provider and deliver financial services alongside the functions required under tenancy agreements. The work covers housing management, responsive repairs, planned and cyclical maintenance, void works, and compliance services. The buyer is based in London, and delivery was specified across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is a housing management and property services contract (CPV 70300000). Repair and maintenance costs were to be priced separately and reimbursed by the association.

The buyer invited offers through a two-stage competitive flexible procedure: a pass/fail Selection Questionnaire followed by an Invitation to Tender for up to three shortlisted bidders. The procurement was cancelled on 18 October 2026; no reason for cancellation is stated. The published contract term ran from 11 January 2027 to 10 January 2032, described as three years with a possible two-year extension. The estimated agent fee was £400,000 excluding VAT (£480,000 including VAT); reimbursed repair, maintenance and void-work costs were additional. Enquiries were due by 15 September 2026 at 12:00, and expressions of interest by 30 September 2026 at 12:00. Tender submissions were to be made by post. ITT scoring was quality 60% and price 40%, with quality covering service delivery, resident engagement, financial management, mobilisation, staffing and capacity, and social value.

The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises. It best suited a Registered Provider able to take responsibility for housing management and maintenance as an integrated service, including tenancy administration, repairs, planned and cyclical maintenance, void works, compliance and financial management. The selection stage tested financial standing, technical capacity, relevant experience, eligibility and regulatory compliance, with minimum pass/fail standards. For shortlisting, relevant experience, demonstrated performance—including KPIs and case studies—and capacity and resources were ranked if more than three bidders passed. Tenderers needed to show how they would engage residents, improve satisfaction, control finances and arrears, mobilise the service, and allocate staff and resources. Quality responses had to meet the minimum score for every question.
