PfH (Procurement for Housing) is a specialist procurement and framework consultancy for the housing sector. They manage tendering opportunities, develop frameworks and DPS (Dynamic Purchasing Systems) agreements for their members, which are housing association or Registered Providers (RPs) across the UK. If you are or want to be a supplier to the housing sector, PfH is likely to present many opportunities for your business to grow.

In 2022 PfH procured £245m of goods and services across 3,000 contracts! They have over 1000 members (public sector buyers – largely housing associations) who manage over 3.9m social housing properties. To put this into context, Government statistic note that in 2021/2022 there was only a total of 4.4m social housing stock in England, which was an increase of 31,000 in the year. Access to PfH housing members can provide a highly efficient route to working with these organisations.

Thornton & Lowe was founded by Dave Thornton over 13 years ago. Dave has a background in housing association procurement, managing the tender process, evaluating supplier bids and he holds an Msc in Housing Practice so fully understands the wider context and pressures on this market. We have been winning PfH frameworks and tenders for our clients ever since, thanks to our dedicated team of professional bid writers. We understand the requirements of PfH, what they expect from bidders and how to draft high quality bid responses.

In this article, we wanted to highlighted the benefits of PfH to suppliers. To understand what a ‘framework’ is click this link to see our detailed overview.

PfH DPS & Framework Solutions

PfH use both DPS and framework agreements to bring their buyers and suppliers together. We have produced an article covering how a DPS is different to a framework, which can be found by clicking here. One of the key benefits to suppliers is that they are continually open to new suppliers

PfH DPS Solutions include:

Capital Works DPS – covering disabled adaptations, scaffolding, waste collection, kitchen, bathrooms, heating, insulation, roofing, windows and doors and cyclical painting
Compliance Services DPS – covering lifts, legionella, radon testing, access control, Japanese Knotweed and Invasive Species, heating servicing and maintenance, fire, electrical testing and maintenance and asbestos

Responsive Repairs & Void Works DPS – covering multi-discipline (full service) provision, general repairs and joinery, plumbing and heating, electrical and specialist works
Asset Decarbonisation & Retrofit Solutions DPS – covering PAS services, Net Zero technical consultancy, primary measures (fabric first), secondary measures (Net Zero technologies installation and maintenance) , whole house retrofit, district infrastructure and systems installation and maintenance, Net Zero materials supply, Net Zero technology solutions and retrofit training academy.

Typically, DPS agreements are more about finding compliant suppliers in comparison to the best/ highest scoring bidder. There is rarely a maximum number of suppliers on a DPS, which can make them really accessible for SME bidders, looking to build up their public sector experience.

In addition to these DPS solutions, PfH also has its core suite of approved frameworks, which are usually for 4 years in duration and have a small window of 6 – 8 weeks in order for you to respond.

These include:

Commercial & Domestic Appliances Framework
Decorative Solutions Framework
Electronic Payment Services Framework
Energy Procurement Framework
Fire Safety Consultancy Framework
Lone Worker Protection Framework
Fire Safety Works Framework
Food Supplies Framework
Furniture & Flooring Framework
Janitorial, Workwear, PPE Framework

PfH Frameworks – Bid Writing for SMEs

In 2021 PfH had a target to increase spending with SMEs to £64m per annum with this rising to over £70m in 2022. This is supported by one of their key social goals, which is to ‘create opportunities for local SMEs’.

This goal is part of their wider Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Goals. It is important when writing bids into an organisation to understand what is important to them and how they monitor their success, in order for your business to be part of the solution. For example, PfH wants to become a Net Zero business and wants to work with, and support, suppliers to do the same. This is then reflected in their tender requirements, which have an increasing weighting towards environmental implications. They also require suppliers to have or to be working towards (with evidence) ISO14001. They are actively targeted with increasing their spend on Net Zero products and services; in 2021 they had a £15m spend target, which increased to nearly £20m in 2022.

Social Value is another important element of PfH frameworks and tender responses. They have a Social Value Rebate Fund and also support an Energy Hardship Fund. These should be considered when drafting your social value tender responses. View our detailed and practical guide to Social Value here.

As bid writing experts, offering an outsourced bid solution, Thornton & Lowe has been helping tendering businesses win work on PfH frameworks for 13 years. This has included advising on suitable PfH tender opportunities, bid writing support and tender guidance. We also regularly help our clients secure contracts through PfH frameworks, via call-offs or mini-competitions.

We have developed some bid writing top tips, which can be found here, which will help you secure your place on PfH frameworks, covering quality, compliance and adding value.

How does a PfH Framework work?

Like any framework or tender, you will need to find a suitable opportunity and follow the instructions on how to bid. For their frameworks and DPS opportunities, PfH use In-Tend, which can be accessed via this link. You can register on their portal today to view live tender opportunities or DPS agreements. You then register your interest and access the tender pack. If you require a bid writing quote we will require these documents in order to help.

For more tendering opportunities take a look at our comprehensive and free tender alert software, covering UK and Europe, Tender Pipeline. This will include PfH tenders and frameworks.

Once you are successful and awarded onto a PfH framework you then need to start winning work from it. Their main route is via a mini competition, which is a reduced-down version of the framework bid, but with the specific tender requirements of the housing association involved in the procurement. PfH agreements do also allow for direct call-off or award but this is usually only to the highest-scoring bidder on the framework.

This is why it is important to ensure you bid writing skills and written quality tender submission is as strong as possible.

At Thornton & Lowe as well as offering an outsourced bid writing and bid management solution we also provide bid writing training courses across the UK. For further details of our bid writing training workshops click here.

“We have recently engaged Thornton & Lowe to assist us with our entry into the bid market! We are new to this – [the T&L] team have spent a vast amount of time researching what type of tenders we should look to bid on, how to follow them and what work we can be doing now so that we are in a position to bid when the tenders are published. They have given us great guidance (as we are absolute beginners) and as a result T&L have introduced a whole new market opportunity to us!

One of those priorities is ‘social value’ which includes a number of initiatives, including ‘improving supplier diversity, innovation and resilience’ by:- creating a more diverse supply chain to deliver the contract, which will better support start-ups, small and medium-sized businesses and VCSEs in doing business on public sector contracts;- increasing innovation and the use of disruptive technologies and business models throughout the supply chain, to deliver lower cost and/or higher quality goods and services, and encourage the wider adoption of innovation;- contributing to the development of scalable and future-proofed new methods to modernise delivery and increase productivity.PfH wishes to support its Members to meet this national priority by creating a framework of innovation that will permit start-ups, small and medium sized businesses and the voluntary sector as well as established larger companies to offer their innovative products and services to the public sector.The Framework Agreement will operate on a national basis, providing an offering suitable for members of PfH in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and other public bodies permitted to use this Framework Agreement.PfH are seeking tenders from organisations who believe they have an innovative product or service, that will deliver clear benefits to the social housing market and the wider public sector.
