Summary of the contracting process

Bromsgrove District Council procured construction materials, specifically plumbing and heating materials with associated supply services, under Lot 1 of its material supply arrangement. The requirement is for the council’s operational needs across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The main procurement category is goods, covering construction materials. The council is based in Redditch and is the buying organisation. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although the awarded supplier is a large business. The requirement concerns material supply rather than construction or installation works, so relevant businesses are merchants, distributors and manufacturers able to provide plumbing and heating products across the stated English locations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award. The submission deadline was 29 November 2024 at 23:59 UTC, and the award date was 30 November 2024. Wolseley UK Ltd received two active awards, each valued at £100,000. The first award covers 1 December 2024 to 30 November 2026. The second covers 1 December 2024 to 30 November 2027. The tender’s stated contract period runs from 1 December 2024 to 30 November 2026. Evaluation was therefore through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The process relates to one lot, covering plumbing and heating material supply and associated services. The two awards are reported separately and their values have not been combined.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates an established council requirement for dependable plumbing and heating material supply across a broad English delivery footprint. Businesses best placed to compete when the requirement returns will be those with strong merchant or distribution capability, reliable stockholding and established manufacturer relationships across construction, plumbing and heating product ranges. National coverage, or a logistics network able to serve the listed English regions consistently, would be important. Suppliers should also be able to manage regular council orders, maintain dependable delivery performance and provide associated customer service. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist merchant could be credible where it can demonstrate sufficient range, fulfilment capacity and geographic reach. Experience supplying public-sector or other multi-site customers would strengthen that position.
