All of our tenders are now being published on our procurement portal.
Procurement is the process we follow to appoint contractors and suppliers to carry out work on our homes and to ensure we can function successfully as a business.
Whilst the cost of goods and services is important to us all, so is the added value that contractors and suppliers can bring, such as:
As a Registered Social Landlord, Selwood Housing must comply with public procurement regulations and laws. One of the key requirements of public procurement regulations is the need to be open and transparent with organisation purchasing activities.
This means that Selwood Housing are obliged to advertise tender opportunities across UK markets once the financial values of opportunities exceed certain thresholds. UK public procurement opportunities that meet the financial threshold values need to be advertised on the UK e-notification service called find a tender service (FTS).
The current financial thresholds that trigger the requirement to advertise on the 'find a tender' service are listed below:

'*Customer reminder* This year is a 53-week year
As a customer, you pay your rent on a weekly basis. Normally there are 52 Mondays in the year when your rent is due.
However, every five or six years, including 2024/25, there are 53 Mondays in the year, which means 53 rent payment days instead of the usual 52. This additional week makes up for a shortfall in days that occurred in the previous standard accounting years, i.e., 52 weeks x 7 only equals 364 days, not 365 days.
More details about how this affects your rent charges can be found on our website: ecs.page.link/Bx4U9
If you claim the housing element of Universal Credit, don’t forget to update your new rent via your UC portal.

Does that mean next year is a 51 week year?
Note to all universal credit does NOT cover that extra week, so you ll have to find it out of your own pocket.
Good luck to our group development director, Paul Walsh, and everyone else taking part in tonight's SleepOutDoorway Wiltshireshire. You're all supporting such vital work and we know the charity, and those they support, will hugely appreciate your involvement.

However, they work differently to traditional heating systems.
