This contract, located in Oldbury, United Kingdom (region UKG37), falls under the energy and related services category. The tender is currently in the active stage, with key dates including an enquiry period ending on 8th May 2026 at 16:00 and a tender submission deadline on 18th May 2026 at 17:00. The contract is intended to start on 30th June 2026, running until 30th June 2028. Prospective suppliers can submit their proposals electronically through the Sandwell Council's e-portal. The procurement method is classified as "Below threshold - open competition". This tender offers a substantial opportunity for businesses in the energy administration sector, particularly those experienced in managing domestic void housing portfolios. Given the emphasis on quality over price, as reflected in the award criteria of 70% quality and 30% price, companies with a strong track record in delivering high-quality energy services to changing tenancies will find this an appealing opportunity. The procurement process explicitly encourages participation from SMEs and VCSEs, widening the scope for smaller entities and community-focused organisations to contribute and expand their client base. The fluctuating nature of void properties adds potential for dynamic growth, aligning well with businesses adept at scaling services based on demand fluctuations. ## Notice Sandwell Council requires a single supplier to provide a void energy administration service covering all void tenancies and property re-lets (change of tenancy). It is the Council's intention to appoint one supplier to manage the entire domestic void housing portfolio owned by Sandwell Council for the contract term. The number of void properties included in the scheme is expected to fluctuate during the contract term, depending on levels of property lettings, housing demand, and changes to the overall housing stock. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037326-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Apr 2026 | | Submission deadline | 18 May 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 29 Jun 2026 - 30 Jun 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SANDWELL METROPOLITAN BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | OLDBURY | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B69 3DE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG37 Sandwell | | Local authority | Sandwell | | Electoral ward | Oldbury | | Westminster constituency | West Bromwich | | Delivery location | TLG37 Sandwell | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71314000 - Energy and related services ## Release History - 23 Apr 2026 at 20:47 - TenderUpdate - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037326-2026 - 23 Apr 2026 at 15:12 - TenderUpdate - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037242-2026 - 23 Apr 2026 at 15:08 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037239-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037326-2026 23rd April 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037242-2026 23rd April 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/037239-2026 23rd April 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - http://in-tendhost.co.uk/sandwellmbc/aspx/Home ## Notice URLs - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
