Summary of the contracting process

Islington Council sought contractors to deliver specialist adaptations, installations and repairs in council homes for residents with vulnerabilities and disabilities. The work is intended to support independent living and enable carers to provide care within the home. Occupational therapists assess residents’ needs, after which the council’s Adaptations Team surveys properties, prepares specialist scale drawings and allocates works to contractors. The requirement covers construction work and repair and maintenance services across London, including existing specialist installations requiring repair. It is a works contract and is not divided into lots. The council manages around 35,000 council tenancies, providing a substantial housing setting for this type of specialist property adaptation work.

The procurement reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure using the London Tenders Portal, with electronic submission allowed in English. Enquiries were due by 25 March 2026 at 11:59 and tenders by 1 April 2026 at 12:00. The planned award decision date was 1 June 2026. The initial contract period was 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2028, with an option for one extension of up to 24 months, subject to a maximum extension period of 12 months at any one time. The estimated value was £4,833,333 excluding VAT, or £5,800,000 including VAT. Quality was weighted at 60% and cost at 40%. The procurement was subsequently cancelled: the authority decided not to award the contract.

This opportunity suited small and medium-sized enterprises with established capability in specialist adaptations for disabled or vulnerable residents, domestic installation work and repairs to existing adaptations. Relevant suppliers would need to manage work arising from occupational therapy recommendations, survey properties, interpret or produce specialist scale drawings and complete adaptations safely in occupied council homes. The requirement also suited contractors able to provide both construction and repair and maintenance services, coordinate with the council’s occupational therapy and adaptations teams, and deliver work across London. The intended arrangement was for two contractors, with jobs allocated alternately and monitored through IT systems, so suppliers needed sufficient operational capacity, reliable scheduling and the ability to handle a continuing flow of individual works.

Notice Information

Notice Title

2425-0661 Specialist adaptations including installations and repairs

Notice Description

The council seeks to procure two (2) contractors to deliver specialist adaptations including installations and repairs for residents with vulnerabilities and disabilities. These new contracts will be for a period of up to forty-eight (48) months (four (4) years). The council is a landlord to around 35,000 council tenants living in homes located across the borough. Within these homes, council tenants or household members may have disabilities that require their home to have adaptions carried out to enable and maintain independent living or allow carers to provide caring duties within the home. In addition, specialist adaptations and repairs are carried out to existing installations where required. The Occupational Therapy Team within the Health and Social Care Directorate assess residents' needs and make recommendations for any adaptations following referrals to their team. These recommendations are then submitted to the Adaptations Team within the Repairs service, who will attend the property to survey how the recommended adaptations can be implemented. Following the survey a specialist scale drawing is made of the adaptations required and is allocated to the contractor to carry out the works. Lots This services contract is not being divided into lots. Works will be issued evenly on an alternate basis between the two (2) Contractors e.g. Contractor A receives jobs 1, 3 and 5, and Contractor B receives 2, 4 and 6. This will be monitored closely using IT systems put in place by the service. Further details will be provided in the invitation to tender. Contract Period The duration will be 24 months from an estimated start date of July 2026. The initial term will be twenty-four (24) months with the option to extend for a further term of twenty-four (24) months.
