UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London & Quadrant Housing Trust is procuring a supply-only framework for ceramic wall tiles, supporting its New Build and Major Works programmes. The requirement covers the manufacture and direct supply of tiles to L&Q; installation and other works are outside the stated scope. It is divided into two areas: New Build and Major Works or refurbishments. Deliveries will be made across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. Products must be supplied directly by manufacturers. The buyer will not accept offers from distributors, wholesalers, resellers or other intermediary organisations. This is a goods procurement for organisations able to provide ceramic wall tiles at national scale.

The procurement has reached tender: L&Q invited offers through an open, three-stage competitive flexible procedure. The stages are a selection questionnaire, invitation to tender, and possible negotiation with a best and final offer before award; L&Q may move directly from tender to award. The framework is estimated at £3,523,648 gross over four years, from 27 January 2027 to 27 January 2031, with an initial two-year term and a two-year extension option. Offers were due by 9 October 2026 at 12:00, with award planned by 14 January 2027. It has two lots, New Build and Major Works, each with the same stated value and four-year period. Evaluation is 60% quality and 40% price. The framework may use direct awards, fixed Schedule of Rates pricing, and electronic auction arrangements.

This opportunity suits ceramic wall-tile manufacturers that can supply L&Q directly and support both new-build and major-works or refurbishment programmes. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, but the direct-manufacturer condition excludes distributors, wholesalers, resellers and other intermediaries. Suppliers need the production capability, stock and distribution capacity to provide continuity of supply across England. Pricing must remain fixed for at least 12 months from framework commencement, so bidders should be able to manage cost certainty over that period. The procurement also requires social value equivalent to 1% of end-of-year contract value and may include plot-based rebates. Strong technical and product-quality evidence is important because quality questions account for most of the evaluation.
