North Northamptonshire Council Major Works Provision for Void Council Dwellings
Authority: North Northamptonshire Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionNorth Northamptonshire Council (here after referred to as 'the Council') Housing Maintenance & Repairs Services maintains c. 8,230 council owned dwellings across North Northamptonshire. The purpose of this contract would be to support the Council's Voids team with any Major Void refurbishment works.
Over a quarter of all Council voids are classified as 'Major' voids which require the replacement of a major component e.g. kitchen, heating system, electrical system, notifiable asbestos removal or structural repairs. This work costs significantly more than a standard void and takes more time. As a result, the Council at times are unable to provide sufficient resource and may seek support from external suppliers to ensure delays are reduced.
To deliver the improved turnaround and possible economies of scale, Housing Maintenance & Repairs Services require a flexible measured-term contract, where such work can easily be draw down.

Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.

i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
