We’re a not-for-profit organisation committed to supporting the housing sector with your procurements. Our frameworks cover a range of works and services – and connect you to a variety of suppliers ready to deliver your projects. Each time you contact us we’ll deliver a service that makes procurement easy, provides you with options, and creates value – every time.

We know that every project is different and will adapt our service to your specific requirements. We regularly advise on specifications, cost models and your contract management post-award.

We’ve recently been appointed as the Cabinet Office’s South East Community of Practice for procurement professionals working in housing. This means we’ll help our network get to grips with procurement reform and work with Cabinet Office to provide updates as they happen. We’ll host informal events and roundtable sessions to share knowledge and best practice with our network. Please come chat to us to learn more.

For almost 50 years, YPO has supplied the public sector with products and services to help drive efficiency savings. We’re one of the largest public sector buying organisations in the UK, owned by 13 local authorities, meaning all profits go back into the public purse. As well as over 100 frameworks providing services in ICT, utilities, facilities management, insurance, fleet and more, we also offer expert procurement advice and guidance to support you with your tenders and contract management.

As the new procurement regime takes effect next year, YPO is helping prepare organisations for the change and together, we’ll create a better future, addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by the new legislation.
