Summary of the contracting process

VIVID Housing Ltd is procuring flooring replacement works for communal areas, wet rooms and domestic properties. The requirement covers the supply and installation of floor coverings and associated floor-covering work. Delivery is identified in Ireland, including the IE052 and IE053 areas. The work is classified as construction works rather than goods or standalone services. It is being procured by VIVID Housing Ltd, a housing organisation based in Portsmouth. The opportunity uses a single lot and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Suppliers specialising in flooring replacement, flexible floor coverings and installation in occupied or communal housing environments should consider whether their operating coverage includes the stated Irish delivery locations and the range of domestic and shared residential settings involved.

The process has reached tender: VIVID Housing Ltd invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is also intended to establish a framework agreement. The enquiry deadline set by the buyer was 8 September 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 15 September 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract runs from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2030, with a maximum extent to 3 January 2033. The procurement value is £3,000,000 excluding VAT and £3,600,000 including VAT. The single lot is separately recorded as 3,000,000 AED. Evaluation is based on quality weighted at 60% and price at 40%. Electronic submission is allowed through the stated tender portal.

This opportunity suits flooring contractors able to manage replacement programmes across communal areas, wet rooms and domestic housing, including the installation of flexible floor coverings. Businesses should be able to demonstrate practical delivery capability across different residential settings, coordinate work at multiple properties or locations, and provide workmanship that meets the buyer’s quality requirements. The 60% quality weighting means suppliers will need more than a competitive price: their method of working, technical approach, service delivery and ability to maintain standards are commercially important. The framework format may suit contractors with capacity to support repeated instructions over several years, while the stated renewal arrangements favour suppliers able to plan for a longer-term relationship. Small and medium-sized enterprises are expressly identified as suitable participants.
