## Summary

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council procured repair and maintenance works for vacant council properties across Sandwell, as an interim arrangement while a separate procurement exercise was undertaken. The requirement covers construction and property repair work needed to bring empty council homes or other council-owned properties into usable condition. The buying organisation is Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, based in Oldbury. The procurement is categorised as works, with the activity classified under construction work. The awarded supplier is responsible for delivering the repairs to the council’s vacant property stock. This opportunity is relevant to contractors providing responsive property repairs, void property works, construction services and associated trades for a local authority housing portfolio.

The procurement has completed and the contract was awarded directly without competition, using a below-threshold procedure. AXIS EUROPE LIMITED was selected for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 1 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. Its value is £450,000 excluding VAT and £540,000 including VAT. The arrangement provides repairs to vacant council properties for an interim six-month period while the council undertakes a separate procurement exercise. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one award, with evaluation through a direct award rather than a competitive tender. The contract remains active rather than cancelled or terminated.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need to demonstrate the capacity to repair and prepare vacant council properties at local-authority scale, coordinating multiple property jobs and completing work within a defined interim programme. Relevant capability would include construction and void-property repair expertise, with access to the trades and operational resources needed to return empty properties to use. Experience of working for a council or housing provider would help a competitor show that it understands public-sector processes, occupied-neighbourhood constraints and property handover standards. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that the buyer values an established organisation able to mobilise quickly and manage a substantial repair workload across Sandwell.
