Summary of the contracting process

Freebridge Community Housing Limited is procuring an Internet of Things (IoT) environmental sensor service to identify, monitor and manage damp, mould and condensation risks across its homes. The solution is expected to combine environmental sensors and telemetry with data collection, analysis and management, software and related information systems. Installation, communications and data transmission, and equipment maintenance are also within the described requirement. Delivery is across Freebridge’s housing stock in King’s Lynn, England. The work is intended to give the housing provider insight into environmental conditions in its properties and support proactive management of damp and mould risks. The procurement is structured as one lot, covering the integrated solution rather than separate lots for devices, software or services.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The enquiry deadline was 9 October 2026 at 12:00 BST and the submission deadline was 16 October 2026 at 12:00 BST; electronic submission was allowed. The single contract was scheduled to run from 26 October 2026 to 25 October 2029. Its stated gross value is £200,000. The procurement describes an initial pilot across an indicative 100–300 properties, followed by Phase 1 covering an indicative additional 300–700 properties and a potential Phase 2 expansion to an indicative 1,000–3,000 properties, subject to funding. Evaluation assigns 25% to technical solution and device capability, 20% to platform, integration and data management, 10% each to implementation and delivery, support and maintenance, social value, and portability, ownership and exit arrangements, and 15% to price.

This opportunity suits suppliers able to provide an end-to-end property-monitoring service, rather than sensors alone. Relevant capabilities include environmental sensing for damp, mould and condensation risks; dependable telemetry and data transmission; installation and maintenance of measuring and communications equipment; and a platform able to integrate, manage and analyse collected data. Bidders should be equipped to deliver a phased deployment, support housing staff in using the solution, and provide ongoing service management and maintenance. The evaluation also rewards a clear approach to device portability, ownership and exit, alongside responsible procurement and social value. The scope begins as a pilot and includes possible later expansion, so suppliers should be able to demonstrate a solution that can be scaled if further funding is available. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises are considered suitable to compete.
