Published requirement description

Bromford Housing Group Limited, (Parent of the Group) as a central purchasing body on behalf of itself and any of its current or future entities and subsidiaries (together “Bromford”) wishes to invite interested organisations (“Potential Suppliers”) to participate in a procurement process to award a Contract for the Supply of Void Property Services – Security, Cleansing, Clearance and associated services.

Bromford regularly has to make secure and undertake clearance and cleansing of void properties (including occasional lofts, cellars, garages and gardens) for approximately 3,000 properties each year across its operating geography.

The majority of this work is undertaken in-house. However, on some properties the services of a specialist security, clearance and cleansing provider are required due to the necessity for securing the premises to avoid damage and theft, the volume of clearance required and/or the nature of waste type left at the property, including specialist waste removal e.g. human waste, needles and the presence of pests such as rodents and the high degree of cleaning required to be undertaken before the property can be re-let.

CPV: Accommodation cleaning services · Household-refuse disposal services · Pest-control services · Security services · Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services
