Summary of the contracting process

East Midlands Housing Group plans to procure a single contract for reactive and planned housing maintenance services. The work will support its internal maintenance services team in maintaining approximately 22,000 properties across the East Midlands for EMH Housing and Regeneration and EMH Care and Support. The group is also considering including maintenance for around 1,700 additional properties managed for four rural housing associations in Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, the Peak District and Warwickshire, through Midlands Rural Housing and Village Development Association. The service category is repair and maintenance services (CPV 50000000). The buyer is East Midlands Housing Group, based in Coalville. The requirement is classified as services and is above the relevant public procurement threshold.

This procurement is at the planning and market-engagement stage; it is an intention to procure rather than an invitation to tender. The buyer expects the invitation to tender to begin in February 2027, with the next notice currently anticipated for 1 February 2027. The buyer is seeking supplier views through a survey, with responses expected by 25 September 2026, to help inform the project. The planned arrangement is one lot and one contract. The estimated gross value is £80 million. The expected contract period is 1 October 2027 to 30 September 2033, with renewal provisions allowing the arrangement to extend to 30 September 2037. The procurement will be run through Delta eSourcing, and suppliers must register with the Supplier Registration Service to be eligible for a public contract.

The requirement is likely to suit established housing maintenance providers able to deliver both responsive repairs and planned maintenance at substantial scale across the East Midlands. Relevant preparation includes demonstrating the operational capacity to support around 22,000 homes for multiple housing and care organisations, with potential additional work across approximately 1,700 rural properties. Suppliers with regional field-service coverage, repair scheduling, property maintenance expertise and the ability to coordinate a large internal client team should be well placed when the tender reaches the market. The buyer is using market engagement to shape the project, so maintenance businesses with experience of similar housing portfolios should consider contributing through the survey. Interested organisations should also prepare their Supplier Registration Service and Delta eSourcing registrations before the anticipated tender stage.
