UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council is procuring responsive housing maintenance repairs and related services for approximately 9,500 council properties. The works cover general building and construction work, including sheltered and multi-dwelling housing, together with electrical installation, wiring, fitting, electrical engineering and plumbing and sanitary works. The procurement is intended to appoint two contractors, although the description also states that it is being let as one lot, with all related services undertaken by one contractor. Delivery is for the Council’s housing stock in the Welwyn Hatfield area, centred on Welwyn Garden City. This is a substantial, multi-trade housing repairs requirement for contractors able to coordinate responsive maintenance across a large property portfolio.

The process has reached tender: the Council invited offers through a selective competitive flexible procedure. It is above threshold and arranged as one lot. Expressions of interest were due by 5 October 2026 at 12:00, and enquiries closed on 28 September 2026 at 12:00. The anticipated contract runs from 1 October 2027 to 30 September 2037. The estimated value is £80,000,000 excluding VAT and £96,000,000 including VAT. The Council expects to complete the award process by 8 April 2027 at 23:59. Evaluation is weighted 60% quality and 40% price. Electronic submissions in English are allowed, with tender documents and submissions handled through the Supply Hertfordshire procurement service.

This opportunity suits established housing maintenance, building services or construction contractors with the operational breadth to deliver responsive repairs across around 9,500 properties. Relevant capability includes general building repairs and construction, sheltered and multi-dwelling housing work, electrical installation and engineering, wiring and fitting, and plumbing and sanitary services. Competitors will need to manage several trades and coordinate delivery across a sizeable housing stock rather than provide a single specialist service. The requirement may also suit a contractor able to operate at significant scale over a long-term maintenance programme, with systems for handling responsive workloads and maintaining service quality. Firms with experience in council or social housing repairs and the capacity to undertake related services under one lot are likely to be best placed.
