Housing Sector

Housing

Chancellor of the Exchequer Philip Hammond has continued to take steps to fix Britain’s “housing crisis” and in the Autumn Budget 2018 allocated a further £500 million for the Housing Infrastructure Fund which will “unlock 650,000 homes”. The fund now stands at £5.5 billion.

It was also revealed that the government has partnered with nine housing associations to deliver 13,000 homes across England.

With so much investment going into housing, authorities leading these projects will require effective and reliable purchasing and supply chain solutions.

Manage spend efficiently

It is important for your organisation to source suppliers and pay for the goods and services you need in the most efficient way possible.

Delta’s Contract Management solution complies with PCR 2015 Life-Cycle Costing. Not only does it give users full control over the cost and time implications for their contract, but it can be used across departments as it allows users to easily record, amend and view changes to contracts.

We are no stranger to the housing sector…

Delta is currently working with 42 housing authorities from across the UK, supporting many in the creation of a streamlined procurement process.

Delta Housing Portal members include:

  • Metropolitan
  • Flagship
  • Gentoo
  • Derby Homes
  • Homes for Haringey
  • Consortium Procurement

Metropolitan is just one of many housing organisations that had no visibility or structured mechanism for identifying and engaging with suppliers for their low-value tender processes before they started working with Delta eSourcing.

Since implementing our solution, Metropolitan has improved its eProcurement strategy and has set up contract lists by type, such as category/sector or geography, a system which is now shared across the organisation.

Denis Abdic, Procurement Specialist at Metropolitan, has assisted us in creating a case study about the work that was completed for the organisation. Denis said that he “found the functionalities of the Delta eSourcing platform very straightforward and user-friendly.”

He has not only recommended our eProcurement software but has also complimented the assistance provided by the Helpdesk team, stating that it is “simply second to none. Excellent service!”

Here’s What Our Clients Say

“Derby Homes have been using Delta eSourcing for a number of years now. The system is comprehensive, straightforward and reliable; expired procurement’s are well archived; the members of staff that we have dealt with have all been very professional and helpful, and their additional support in helping us to bring about a successful Supplier Open Day recently was invaluable.”

“E-act have been using the Delta E-sourcing platform for 2 years. The system itself is very intuitive, minimal user training is required. The helpdesk are always on hand for any queries that do arise. We intend to roll this out to the wider business ASAP so they can also reap the rewards! The platform itself is very transparent, it also allows us to centralise information, whilst retaining local ownership where required.”
