Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council intends to procure works to adapt bathing facilities in council housing across Leeds. The scope includes removing existing baths or other bathing facilities, installing wet-floor showers, installing over-bath showers, fitting bath replacement trays and completing associated building works. This is a public-sector housing adaptations project covering bathroom construction and installation work (CPV 45211310). Suppliers would need to coordinate removal, plumbing, bathroom fitting and related building work in occupied or operational council housing settings. The council is the buyer and the work is intended for properties across the city. The procurement is categorised as works and is being considered as a framework arrangement, rather than a single standalone installation project.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Leeds City Council has announced its intention to procure and has not yet invited tenders. The council expects to use a framework agreement, with one planned lot. The estimated value is £4,000,000 excluding VAT, or £4,800,000 including VAT. The planned contract period is 1 September 2027 to 31 August 2030, with a possible renewal or extension to 31 August 2032. The council expects the next notice to be published on 11 January 2027. Preliminary market engagement is scheduled for 3 September 2026, requiring prospective suppliers to review the engagement material and complete questions in the Jaggaer technical envelope. The opportunity is identified as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs.

The work is likely to suit bathroom adaptation contractors, plumbing and shower installation specialists, and building firms able to deliver coordinated works in council housing. Relevant capability includes safely removing existing bathing facilities, installing wet-floor and over-bath showers, fitting replacement trays and carrying out associated building repairs or alterations. Suppliers should be prepared to manage multiple properties across Leeds, coordinate trades, schedule installations and work to consistent technical and quality requirements. The planned framework structure may suit businesses seeking a programme of public-sector housing work rather than a single project. SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises are explicitly considered suitable, so smaller specialist firms may wish to prepare evidence of capacity, relevant experience and delivery arrangements before the tender stage.
