Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Halton Housing, acting as the principal contracting authority along with Cirrus Purchasing Ltd managing the tender on behalf of the Cirrus Consortium for the "Cirrus Consortium c/o Halton Housing Kitchen Supply Framework 2025". This framework, classified under the CPV code for kitchen furniture and equipment, extends across England, Scotland, and Wales, excluding Northern Ireland, with a total awarded value of £150,000,000. The open procedure above the threshold was completed on 24th March 2025, with the contract period running from 19th May 2025 to 18th May 2029. This framework seeks suppliers for both pre-assembled and flat-pack kitchen units, accessories, worktops, and ancillary products, adhering to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 #102.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), specialising in kitchen manufacturing and supplying. As the framework supports the procurement of a wide range of kitchen components and services, companies in the modular kitchen and domestic appliances sector stand to gain substantially. With the scope allowing for installations, repairs, maintenance, and new projects, firms aligned with new-build and void replacement systems will find ongoing opportunities. Larger companies such as Howden Joinery Limited and SMEs like Dennis and Robinson Ltd, already chosen as suppliers, demonstrate the viability for diverse business scales to successfully engage and expand through this framework.
