Peterborough City Council (PCC) is seeking to procure a management agent to provide a Housing management and repairs service within the Peterborough Locality. Initial stock levels are expected to be between 100 and 150 units with an ambition to reach 2000 units by 2032. It is envisaged that the Housing Management solution will be in place by 1 April 2022.
Potential providers are invited to respond to the questions concerning the proposed service to be procured. Responses to these questions may be used to inform our commissioning approach to the tender exercise. In order to make an informed decision on the optimum procurement approach we are looking to the market to:
1. Suggest innovative and cost-effective delivery solutions, which may inform our specification development.
2. Inform our thinking regarding commercial considerations of procuring a Housing Management agent.
3. Ascertain a clear understanding of the market’s interest, capacity and experience to deliver the service.
4. Understand the optimum way of procuring that will enable a wide cross section of the supply market to bid, including Local Authorities, Housing Associations and other registered providers.
Please note that this is not a call for competition, neither is it a procurement exercise but an opportunity for Peterborough City Council to better understand the supply market for providers and to showcase their ideas.
