UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council intends to establish a framework for the supply of ironmongery and fixings to support housing maintenance, construction, maintenance and infrastructure programmes across Nottingham. The requirement covers fasteners, nails, screws, bolts, locks, latches, sealants and adhesives, flooring tools, and miscellaneous accessories and materials. This is a goods supply contract, with deliveries required within Nottingham City Council’s boundaries. The framework will cover the Council’s product needs through a single lot. Businesses supplying a broad range of building hardware, fixings, adhesives, tools and related materials may find the scope relevant, particularly where they can provide dependable supply for ongoing public-sector housing maintenance and infrastructure activity.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the Council has announced its intention to procure and has not invited tenders. It expects to use an above-threshold open procedure to establish a framework agreement. The planned future notice date is 1 September 2026, and the anticipated framework period is 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2030. The estimated value is £2,500,000 excluding VAT and £30,000,000 including VAT. The procurement has one lot, covering the full product range. The Council describes the arrangement as a future tender opportunity, with further procedural and submission details to be provided when the tender is published. The published value has been updated because VAT was previously miscalculated.

The requirement is likely to suit manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist merchants supplying ironmongery, fixings, sealants, adhesives, flooring tools and associated construction materials. Suppliers with a broad catalogue and the ability to source or hold varied lines should be well placed, as the single lot combines multiple product categories. The Council is seeking a reliable supplier to support housing maintenance and wider construction and infrastructure programmes, so dependable fulfilment, consistent product availability and responsive order handling will be important commercial strengths. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Potential suppliers can use this planning period to review their range, supply capacity and public-sector readiness before the tender reaches the market.
