Summary of the contracting process

The tender process initiated by Stoke on Trent City Council, a sub-central government public authority, is currently in the planning stage for a project titled "Minor (Adaptations) Works Framework." The purpose of this procurement is to establish a framework for small adaptations in homes, such as the installation of grab rails or door adjustments, to ensure safety and independence at home. Scheduled to start on 8th September 2025, the framework will run for three years in the Stoke-on-Trent area (UKG23 region). The council plans to conduct an open competition below the threshold to select contractors capable of adhering to the specified requirements, including a fundamental awareness of asbestos. The project classifies under building construction, installation, and completion work categories, with an estimated value of £600,000.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for SMEs specialising in building and construction-related services to grow their business by becoming part of the established framework. Companies with a demonstrated ability in small-scale adaptation works and compliance with health and safety standards, including risk assessments, will find this tender particularly suitable. By engaging in this project, businesses can expand their portfolios and gain valuable experience working with a public authority, potentially leading to further opportunities in the public sector. The potential requirement for case-specific quotations also allows businesses to flexibly showcase their competitive pricing and service standards.
