Established in 2004, Procurement for Housing (PfH) is a national procurement consortium dedicated to the social housing sector and supported by the National Housing Federation (NHF), Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) and HouseMark. Collectively our Members manage more than 75% of UK’ social housing stock, with PfH helping them to achieve efficiency savings using a wide range of services including framework agreements, dynamic purchasing systems, spend analyses, strategy reviews, consolidated billing and comprehensive reporting. PfH is a contracting authority under Regulation 2 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (“PCR 2015”) and a central purchasing body under regulation 37 PCR 2015.
Please refer to www.pfh.co.uk for additional information.

By integrating procurement services and technology, Inprova operates as a delivery partner, supporting business performance improvement for the public sector.
Working collaboratively, bB and PfH are seeking to re-procure a framework for MMC Category 1 construction systems.

mainstream solution for the development of new homes and in doing so push the boundaries of design standards with innovative, future-proofed solutions that achieve the highest environmental and sustainability standards during the term of the framework. Further details are contained within the project documents, which will be available to download once an expression of interest has been lodged.
