National Housing Federation Contract Management Guide co-written by echelon

Repairs and maintenance are tenants’ top priorities; social housing providers will be judged and regulated according to the quality of their repairs and maintenance.

As maintenance and improvement costs are a significant part of any landlord’s expenditure, the way resources are used and managed is crucial to business success.

Effective contract management is built on the foundations of effective scoping, procurement and mobilisation through to delivery. This comprehensive guide provides a strategic approach to implementing each of these stages. It is essential reading for anyone involved in procuring or managing maintenance contracts.

The guide is written specifically for social housing landlords, including arm’s length management organisations, tenant management organisations and local authorities.

This document has been co-authored by echelon Consultancy Ltd and Anthony Collins Solicitors and is being launched at the National Housing Federation Maintenance Conference.
