Procurement for Housing (PfH), a national procurement consortium serving the social housing sector, seeks to establish a four‑year framework agreement across the United Kingdom for the supply of building and construction materials. The framework will be organised into multiple distinct lots, each designed to cover specific material categories and supply routes, with a full description published in the tender notice. PfH’s intent is to streamline procurement for its members, representing the majority of UK social‑housing stock, by providing a cohesive, centrally managed procurement solution that spans from plumbing and heating to electrical components, building essentials, and renewable‑related supplies.

Among the lots specified, providers will be required to supply plumbing, heating and gas materials; electrical components; core building and construction items; aids and adaptations; materials sourced through national consortia or buying groups; managed store and service solutions; renewable and retrofit materials; on‑demand deliveries supported by branch networks; kitchen items for responsive works; and technology solutions such as van stock to support the supply chain. Each lot will include allocations for the broader UK market as well as separate sub‑lots for Scottish and Welsh customers. The evaluation of suppliers will be based primarily on quality (60%) with price (40%) as the supplementary criterion, ensuring that high‑standard products and services are emphasised.

All supplied materials must comply with applicable United Kingdom building regulations and relevant industry standards.

To qualify, consultancies must be Filipino‑based or hold at least sixty‑percent ownership by Filipino citizens, and they must submit an expression of interest and the required Short‑Listing Documents by the prescribed deadline.

Eligible firms must obtain a minimum 70 % score on the pass‑fail criteria—based on experience, personnel qualification and capacity—and the resulting contract will be a twelve‑month, quality‑based engagement.

All services fall under a light‑touch special regime, are subject to renewal and may be modified under the 2023 Procurement Act to accommodate statutory, regulatory and organisational updates. Each provider must ensure placement plans are written and refreshed within ten working days, in accordance with EHCP and trauma‑informed principles.
