Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "Kent Kitchen and Bathrooms Refurbishments" has been initiated by Southern Housing, a notable housing organisation based in London, England. The procurement falls under the industry category of bathrooms construction work, with additional focus on the installation of fitted kitchens. This procurement process covers the regions of London and the South East in the United Kingdom. It is currently in the award stage, following the successful completion of a direct procurement method via a single tender action, which was below the threshold. The tender's contract period begins on 21st April 2025 and ends on 31st March 2026, with a total contract value of £2,700,000 GBP. Key dates included the tender period end date on 1st March 2025, and the contract award on 15th April 2025.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and refurbishment, particularly those with a focus on kitchen and bathroom projects. As Southern Housing is amenable to engaging with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), companies of this scale are particularly well-suited to compete in such procurement processes. Given that the procurement method involved a direct approach, it favours businesses that have established relationships within the industry or those capable of meeting the required specifications promptly and effectively. Booker & Best Limited, an SME based in East Sussex, has already been awarded the contract, indicating the potential for similar organisations to secure future collaborative opportunities in such public sector projects.
