Southern Housing would like to commence early market engagement to share some headline information about the opportunity and also gather views, knowledge, feedback and insight from the market to help shape the procurement strategy ahead of any formal exercise in relation to the following areas: 1. Packaging of works – work streams and geography 2. Understand market capabilities to understand the innovations, solutions and best practice approaches that are available. 3. Collaboration 4. Incentivisation and Performance Mechanism 5. Pricing Structure 6. Alignment of expectations between Southern Housing and the market. The information gathered will be used: 1. to inform the contract packaging 2. to inform the procurement process and the procurement route 3. to inform and influence the structure and content of the tender documents and 4. to provide feedback in relation to the appetite of the market together with information that will allow the exercise to be shaped to elicit a positive response from providers. We are committed to meaningful engagement and working with the market to shape our approach and ensure the best possible procurement outcomes and delivery for our tenants. It is also hoped that with early visibility and engagement of this opportunity it will encourage existing contractors and new entrants into the Social Housing Sector to participate in this fantastic opportunity.
