Introduction

Providing 24/7 support is a critical responsibility for Housing Associations, and our Out of Hours Call Handling framework is designed to ensure your tenants always have a professional, empathetic point of contact when your offices are closed.

Specifically designed for Housing Associations and local authorities within Wales, all providers have Welsh speaking options included as standard. The framework ensures access to pre-vetted specialists while maintaining full compliance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) and the Welsh Procurement Policy Note (WPPN).

With a maximum award value of £180,000.00, this framework leverages the collective buying power of Barcud Shared Services clients and members to drive significant value for money without compromising on local quality.

Whether managing emergency repairs or tenant inquiries, this framework provides the peace of mind that service continuity is maintained at the highest standard.
