II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The first Social Housing Emerging Disrupters (SHED) Framework Agreement was launched in January 2022, comprising 18 innovative solutions. The aim was to create a framework of innovation permitting 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 second SHED Framework (SHED 2) commenced in January 2023 with an additional 20 solutions.
To reflect the emerging nature of innovation, a third SHED Framework is now being procured.
The solution will enable PfH Members to procure a range of products and services that offer real and innovative benefit to the housing and wider public sector. The framework will provide successful suppliers with the opportunity to promote their innovation and will allow fledgling markets to test their true potential, providing the foundations for success and wider adoption across 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. Suppliers will not be excluded for not being able to supply all regions.
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.
