II.1.4)Information on framework agreement

II.1.5)Short description of the contract or purchase(s)

Thirteen Housing Group Limited was created from the merger of Tees Valley based organisations Fabrick Housing Group and Vela Group.
The group owns and manages more than 32 000 homes from an area spanning North Tyneside to York, making it the largest registered housing provider in the North East, and in the top 25 nationally. It is also one of the ten largest employers in the North East.
Former companies Fabrick and Vela merged to become new parent company Thirteen Housing Group Limited. Their partner landlords, Erimus Housing and Tees Valley Housing, formerly in Fabrick and Housing Hartlepool and Tristar Homes, formerly in Vela, remain separate organisations in their own right but are part of the larger group. Thirteen offers strategic direction and drives the vision for the partnership, overseeing the partner organisations in the group.
As part of the move, Thirteen Care and Support was created, a new housing support arm, bringing together the services of the supported housing team of Tees Valley and Norcare, a former Tyneside based charity.
The move means expertise; resources and costs can be shared, achieving savings without reducing services and allowing the landlords to focus on the needs of their tenants and neighbourhoods.

Further information is available on the Group’s website www.thirteengroup.co.uk
