Public sector procurement specialist

The social housing sector is presenting an ever growing list of challenges to providers. Increasing demands from building safety standards, decarbonisation targets and consumer regulation mean that budgets are being stretched further than ever before. The recent end of ECO4 funding and the introduction of new regulations such as Awaab’s Law only scratch the surface of considerations landlords across the UK will now need to consider as part of their wider business strategy.

Public sector procurement specialist, LHC, hosted its anniversary event and awards ceremony on Thursday 13th October at The Brewery, London. The event bought together over 320 public sector clients, framework suppliers and partners to celebrate 50 years of excellence.

The lunchtime event, which was co-hosted by Sally Gunnell OBE, celebrated the success of LHC’s stakeholders and included an exclusive pre-event seminar programme for LHC clients, which focused on key topical issues, including Brexit, energy efficiency and off-site construction of housing in the public sector. The seminar sessions were followed by the LHC awards which were delivered to both clients and suppliers who have worked to deliver excellence.
