UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council had initiated a procurement process for repairs and maintenance services to its council housing stock in the Barrow area. The procurement was categorized under the services industry with a focus on repair and maintenance services of building installations. The council operates from South Lakeland House in Kendal, United Kingdom. Originally at the planning stage with related activities updated on 27th May 2025, the procurement process has been withdrawn with a tender cancellation notice published on 1st July 2025. The procurement timeline envisioned a contract period starting from 6th November 2025 until 7th November 2029. However, the award process has been cancelled, with no definitive future procurement dates available at this time.

This tender offered significant opportunities for businesses involved in building repair and maintenance services, particularly those capable of servicing a regional contract in North West England. With the procurement undergoing a major delay, businesses could prepare to compete once the process resumes, enabling participation of companies with experience in collaborating with sub-central government bodies. Firms not yet registered are advised to prepare by registering on procurement portals such as The Chest, ensuring readiness for future updates and tender opportunities as the council navigates through the necessary steps to potentially reintroduce the contract.
