This procurement opportunity is aligned with the services sector, specifically repair and maintenance services, and is open to entities across the West Midlands region, including Coventry, Birmingham, Hereford, and Worcester. A preliminary market engagement notice has been published, inviting interested parties to contact Citizen Housing by 12th June 2026 to join their mailing list. The project is still in the planning stage with a tentative contract period starting from 1st July 2026 to 30th June 2027. The procurement method involves a preliminary market engagement, and the legal basis for the procurement is grounded in UK legislation 2023/54. This procurement provides a growth opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) located in the West Midlands, especially those with expertise in providing reliable handyman services to office accommodations. Ideal candidates would be local companies with a track record in office maintenance, capable of providing both emergency and non-emergency repair services, and capable of small refurbishments and general decorating. The emphasis on engaging local businesses underscores Citizen Housing's commitment to fostering local employment and leveraging the strengths of community-based firms. With a planned budget of £40,000, businesses with the capability to deliver efficient, documented, and reliable services across multiple locations could greatly benefit from this project. ## Notice Citizen are gathering information on a potential upcoming procurement exercise for a handyman services, to help steer a possible procurement route.
