We are one of the UK’s leading housing associations with over 40 years’ experience developing award winning homes. A member of the G15 Group of London’s largest housing associations, we own and manage approx. 21,000 homes across London, Hertfordshire and the South East. We love to build homes and we take great pride in the quality of the homes we deliver. For further details visit www.networkhomes.org.uk

Network Home are now looking to widen the scope of their remediation of their High-Risk Residential Buildings and step up the investigation of their low rise stock. It is anticipated that the value of this work will be circa 50 million pounds, this will be dependent on the defects uncovered by the investigatory works which are in the planning stage at the moment. The area covered is predominantly north and north west London and Hertfordshire. There are in the region of 55 sites affected and 1500 units, so there is a significant number of buildings to be investigated as part of this next tranche works being undertaken which Network Homes will be looking to call off this particular framework to assist us with.
The Framework will start in April 2022 and will be for a period of 4 years.
We will appoint Contractors to the framework as follows:
Lot 1: 5
Lot 2: 8

Network Homes has a number of wholly owned subsidiaries who will be entitled to call off contracts under this
framework. It is also likely to be used by local authorities and other social housing providers in the UK (both those that are in existence now and those that may come into
existence during the term of the framework agreement) may also be entitled to call off contracts under the
framework agreement. ‘Social Housing Provider’ for this purpose means any provider of social housing and
includes registered providers (as listed on the Gov.UK Website: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/
current-registered-providers-of-social-housing) and may include local authorities and ALMO's. Applicants should
note that, under the framework agreement, no organisation entitled to call off shall be under any obligation to
do so and no social housing provider has the automatic right to do so without direct permission from Network
Homes Ltd.

The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
