This procurement falls under the construction industry category, specifically related to pipelines and communication work. The engagement end date for this market consultation is set for 25th March 2022, and the services will be required across various regions in England, where Accent manages over 20,000 homes. This opportunity is particularly well-suited for businesses specialising in consultancy services aimed at the housing sector, especially those with experience in managing wayleave requests associated with fibre-optic installations. Companies that can provide strategic advice, guidance, and operational support to registered social housing providers would find significant growth potential through this engagement. Interested parties should prepare their executive summaries detailing relevant experience for submission via the specified Proactis portal. ## Notice Our corporate strategy 2021-2024, Building Better Futures, sets out our ambitious agenda to deliver high quality homes in response to the UK housing crisis and to transform how we provide services to our customers. Our ambition is to be recognised as a market leader for the quality of our homes and the effectiveness of our services. Accent's principal activity is the management and development of affordable housing, and the organisation currently provides just over 20,000 homes to around 35,000 customers. We have homes across much of England split into 5 regions which broadly[but not exactly] mirror HM Government Office regions: * Yorkshire & Humber * East * South * North West * North East A sharp increase in wayleave requests associated with the installation of fibre-optic cabling into our properties, coupled with amendments to the Telecommunications Code of Conduct regarding a respondent's approach to wayleave risks placing an undue financial and resource burden on Accent. Accent Housing seeks to engage with the market for the purpose of building knowledge to inform the design of a detailed procurement & service specification prior launching a competitive process for the provision of Internet Access Connectivity Wayleave Consultancy Services. We are particularly interested in engaging with Economic Operators who have a demonstrable track record in working with Registered Providers of Social Housing in providing advice, guidance, and operational process design & delivery to support the management of requests received from third party communications companies to install fibre cabling into our properties. Additional information: In the first instance please submit your response to Procontract project DN599180, via the Proactis Portal messaging platform as an executive summary detailing the services you offer and your experience in this area.
