About the buyer

Plymouth Community Homes is a housing association based in Plymouth, with its own dedicated procurement team handling supplier tenders and contracts. Tenders are advertised through the EU Supply portal, where suppliers register free to bid or receive alerts. Suppliers must sign up to a Supply Chain Code of Conduct before doing business with the association. That code sits alongside separate policies covering health and safety, data protection, fire safety and safeguarding. Procurement decisions follow a stated commitment to openness, transparency and fairness. Orders fall under Plymouth Community Homes's own terms and conditions, except for construction contracts agreed separately.

£434bn was the total UK public sector procurement spend in FY 2025/26.

Over the past 5 years, most of Plymouth Community Homes's contract awards have been in construction work, business services and architectural and engineering services.
