UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rochdale Boroughwide Housing Limited is procuring VAT tax advisory services from a firm with extensive knowledge and experience of the social housing sector. The requirement covers financial consultancy relating to VAT, supporting the housing organisation with specialist tax advice. The service will be delivered in the United Kingdom, for the benefit of the organisation’s housing operations. This is a services opportunity suited to tax advisers, VAT specialists and accountancy or consultancy firms with relevant public, housing or not-for-profit sector expertise. The buyer is Rochdale Boroughwide Housing Limited, based in Rochdale. The procurement concerns one requirement rather than a range of separate service packages, so suppliers should be able to provide a coherent VAT advisory service across the organisation’s needs.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited quotations through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 22 September 2026 at 17:00, and offers had to be submitted by 25 September 2026 at 17:00. Electronic submission was allowed, with registration, tender documents and all ITT correspondence handled through The Chest portal. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with two available 12-month extensions and a maximum end date of 31 October 2031. Its gross value is £30,000. Evaluation is weighted 55% for quality and 45% for price, making the technical response and service approach more important than cost alone. The requirement is divided into one lot.

This opportunity suits VAT advisers, tax practices and financial consultancy firms that can demonstrate substantial knowledge and experience in social housing. Suppliers should be able to advise a housing provider on VAT matters with a strong understanding of the sector’s operational, regulatory and commercial context. The evaluation weighting favours quality, so firms with experienced advisers, clear methods, reliable communication and evidence of delivering comparable VAT assignments are well placed to compete. The work is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, including specialist practices that can provide senior expertise without the scale of a national firm. Businesses should be prepared to support the full requirement as a single service package and to maintain advisory capacity over the core term and any extensions.
