The group is made up of 4 registered providers consisting of a parent organisation (County Durham Housing Group), East Durham Homes, Dale and Valley Homes and Durham City Homes. County Durham Housing Group are currently considering all options available for the provision of a fully comprehensive facilities management service which will be accessed across the group for office accommodation, sheltered housing units, communal flat blocks and community hubs.

County Durham Housing Group is completing a pre-procurement exercise in order to ensure that fundamental aspects of this contract are taken into account throughout the procurement process. The information that is obtained throughout this process will then be used to form the official formal procurement process and all non-commercially sensitive information will be made available to potential providers of this contract.
