A major housing association has walked away from the
biggest of its three contracts with social housing contractor Mears, due to the
company’s performance ‘falling below an acceptable standard’. Metropolitan confirmed this week that it had ‘terminated’
an agreement with Mears, which in 2008 won a trio of Metropolitan contracts
worth £157 million that were described at the time as ‘10-year’ deals. Mears
maintained that the contracts were currently in the process of ‘winding down’. Mears
has been responsible for maintaining as many as 38,000 homes on behalf of
Metropolitan under the three contracts since 2008, dealing with east of England
and the midlands, Clapham Park, and the rest of London. Read more on Inside
