Procurement
Help us provide excellent services to our residents
Housing 21 spends over £100m each year on a wide range of services, goods and works.

Tendering is undertaken in a number of different ways which may include utilising various Framework Agreements or advertising contracts at the following sites:
- For low value opportunities: Contracts Finder
- For high value opportunities: Find high value contracts in the public sector - GOV.UK
