Welcome to the first update on our Major Works 2024/25 Investment Programme.
We are committed to sharing news and updates with you at least every three months, as well as offering the opportunity to join customer engagement opportunities throughout the year.
Working with a group of residents, we have started our new Kitchen procurement process with the Invite to Tender (ITT) going out to the market in April and evaluation being undertaken in June by both staff and trained residents. This work is expected to commence in residents homes in Autumn 2024/25.
Our new Bathroom procurement process has also commenced and the Invite to Tender is out to market, with joint resident and staff evaluation due to be completed in late June. This work is expected to commence in residents homes in Autumn 2024/25.
We have also started a new electrical rewire programme, which is being delivered by our own in-house engineers. This is currently being completed within void properties but in future years will be rolled out to occupied homes.
The final procurement exercise for 2024/25 has started for our window replacement programme. The Invite to Tender process has commenced and we expect to be completing new installations during the Winter 2024/25.
These new programmes will cover all of our rented homes. We'll be in touch with you as soon as we have agreed plans with our appointed contractors and will let you know how this will impact you.
In the meantime, we wanted to tell you a bit more about the programme and how we’ve been working with residents to plan ahead. In this update, we’ll share how we’ll make sure the programme focuses on quality, resident experience and delivering homes where people want to live.
