## Summary

Orwell Housing Association Ltd procured scaffolding works and associated services for its property programme. The work supports responsive repairs, empty-property works, planned maintenance, refurbishment projects, compliance programmes and building-safety works, as well as other property-related activities. The requirement is for scaffolding to enable these housing and building activities, rather than a standalone construction project. The award classifies the work as scaffolding, delivered in the United Kingdom. This is relevant to scaffolding contractors able to provide services across a range of housing maintenance and improvement jobs for a housing association.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to S P Scaffolding (East Anglia) Limited. Orwell Housing Association used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026, with an award value of £165,000 excluding VAT (£198,000 including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2029, with an option for one further 12-month extension, potentially taking the end date to 3 January 2030. There was one lot. The contract is active. Performance measures cover customer satisfaction, appointments made and kept, job completion within target times, and complaints.

This award shows demand from Orwell Housing Association for scaffolding and associated services across responsive repairs, empty homes, planned maintenance, refurbishment, compliance and building safety work. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to organise scaffolding delivery across varied property jobs and work to service measures covering customer satisfaction, keeping appointments, completing jobs within target times and managing complaints. The award went to a specialist scaffolding supplier, indicating that relevant scaffolding capability is central to this requirement. The procurement used a direct award without competition, so it does not establish a competitive evaluation model or stated qualification thresholds for future opportunities. Suppliers whose experience and operating capacity align with housing maintenance and improvement work are the closest fit.
