Notting Hill Housing Association

Notting Hill Housing Association is one of the UK's largest providers of affordable housing and employs approximately 750 staff. They manage 19,000 homes and house nearly 50,000 people across London and the surrounding areas.

In 2007, the Client wanted to review its consultants’ frameworks to reflect its strategic partnering objectives. Following a rigorous Ojeu process, Ridge was appointed on a 5-year framework for all planned maintenance works in the Kensington and Chelsea area and home support works across all areas.
