Summary of the contracting process

Livv Housing Group established a supplier framework for goods supporting vulnerable customers, including people experiencing furniture poverty, domestic abuse, hoarding-related property damage and serious disrepair. Lot 1 covers the supply and delivery of furniture and furnishings, including beds, mattresses, sofas, dining and bedroom furniture, bedding and other soft furnishings. Lot 2 covers the supply and installation of flooring, including carpets, other floor coverings and, occasionally, window coverings. Lot 3 covers the supply and delivery of white goods, including cookers, washing machines, fridge freezers and small domestic appliances. The buyer is Livv Housing Group, based in Prescot, with delivery across England.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through an open procedure for a closed framework using competitions both with and without reopening competition. Awards were made on 16 June 2026 and contracts were signed on 10 August 2026. Lot 1, Furniture and Furnishings, was awarded to Focus Furnishing, Furniture Resource Centre Limited and 4 Front Furniture Ltd for £160,000 gross, with a contract period from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2030. Lot 2, Flooring, was awarded to those three suppliers plus Branew Flooring Limited for £40,000 gross over the same period. Lot 3, White Goods, was awarded to Advanced Total Supplies Ltd and 4 Front Furniture Ltd for £120,000 gross over the same period. Each lot was evaluated on quality at 60% and cost at 40%.

This requirement is relevant to suppliers able to provide and distribute domestic furniture, furnishings, flooring or white goods for vulnerable housing customers. Furniture suppliers would need a broad range covering beds, mattresses, sofas, dining and bedroom furniture, bedding and soft furnishings. Flooring specialists would need to supply and install carpets and other floor coverings, with occasional window-covering work. White-goods suppliers would need to source and deliver cookers, washing machines, fridge freezers and small domestic appliances. The awarded supplier group shows that small and medium-sized businesses can compete, including a voluntary, community or social enterprise in furniture supply. Credible competitors would need reliable nationwide logistics, installation capacity where relevant, product availability and experience supporting housing or household-needs programmes.
