Summary: Metropolitan Housing Trust Limited is planning an out-of-hours call handling service for its housing operations. The requirement falls within call-centre services (CPV 79512000) and is intended to provide call handling outside normal operating hours. Delivery is described as covering the United Kingdom. The planned service will be shaped through supplier input, with feedback intended to help MHT develop the service specification, commercial approach and procurement strategy. This is therefore relevant to contact-centre operators, outsourced customer-service providers and specialist telephone response businesses that can support housing-related out-of-hours communications. Suppliers with experience designing or delivering continuous, evening, overnight or weekend call-handling services should be able to understand the requirement and contribute practical market insight before any future procurement is launched.
