Supporting a Multi-Year External Works Procurement for a UK Housing Environment
Tijani & Co supported a confidential procurement and commercial assessment relating to the delivery of groundworks, fencing, clearance and communal area improvement works across a UK housing environment.
The requirement centred on securing a capable supplier for a multi-year external works programme with an estimated value in excess of £2m. The programme was designed to improve the safety, usability and long-term condition of residential and communal spaces.
The procurement covered groundworks, fencing repairs, new installations, site clearance, excavation, preparation works and the improvement of communal areas. The wider objective was to ensure that the appointed delivery partner could provide safe, compliant, sustainable and cost-effective works while supporting better outcomes for residents.
Client Context
The client required a supplier capable of delivering a broad package of external works across residential assets and shared spaces.
Scope of Works
The scope included:
Groundworks and site preparation
Fencing repairs and new installations
Clearance, excavation and enabling works
Communal area improvements
Safe and operational external spaces for residents
Design input to reduce recurring site issues
Practical measures to help reduce environmental and anti-social behaviour risks
Sustainable removal and handling of spoil and site waste
The procurement carried an estimated value of over £2m and was expected to run over a multi-year period.
The Challenge
The procurement required more than a basic works contractor appointment.
The client needed a supplier that could demonstrate:
Health and safety compliance
Operational capability across multiple sites
Value for money
Sustainable delivery practices
Experience in live residential environments
Ability to influence practical design specifications
Resident-conscious working methods
Reliable handling of spoil, waste and site clearance
Capacity to deliver a long-term programme of works
The evaluation environment was competitive, with multiple suppliers submitting tenders and a strong SME presence in the market.

Key Commercial Considerations
The procurement required careful balancing of cost, quality, compliance and operational deliverability.
Supplier Capability
The supplier needed to show practical capability across residential and communal environments, including safe working methods, appropriate resourcing and the ability to manage multiple work locations.
Value for Money
The assessment considered whether the proposed approach offered value for money across the full contract period, not just at the point of award.
Health, Safety and Compliance
The works required a strong health and safety approach, particularly because the activity related to residential spaces, communal areas, site clearance, fencing and excavation.
Sustainability
Sustainable spoil removal, waste handling and responsible site management were important parts of the delivery requirement.
Resident and Community Impact
The works needed to support safer, more usable communal areas and reduce issues that may contribute to poor resident experience or anti-social behaviour.
Outcome
The procurement concluded with the appointment of a supplier for a multi-year works contract valued at approximately £2m+.
The final solution supported the client’s objectives around:
Safe and compliant works delivery
Improved communal and external areas
Better operational reliability across housing assets
Sustainable handling of site materials and spoil
Value for money across the contract term
A structured supplier appointment following a competitive process
The result was a commercially grounded procurement outcome for a long-term external works programme.
