Procurement for Housing is the leading national procurement consortium for the social housing sector and is supported by its stakeholders — the National Housing Federation, Chartered Institute of Housing and HouseMark. It was created in response to the Gershon Review, which highlighted the major inefficiencies in a sector that now spends more than 12 000 000 000 GBP a year on products and services. Following a pilot conducted by Inprova Group and its stakeholders, Procurement for Housing was launched in March 2004 (PfH Scotland September 2013) after a successful tender process. The current contract period runs until mid-2021.
Customer service is a fundamental part of the contract, with high expectations from the selected contractors on the framework (‘Framework Suppliers’) to support and add value to the users of the Framework Agreement in a tangible and meaningful manner. This process will be backed up by provisions within the Framework Agreement, including Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and or Service Level Agreements where appropriate.
