Summary of the contracting process

Be One Homes is procuring the supply and installation of windows for its housing programme. The requirement covers window installation and associated supply, with two contractors appointed to share the workload over the contract term. The buying organisation is Be One Homes, a public authority based in Bolton. The work is for delivery in the North West of England. This is a construction and building-envelope opportunity suited to window manufacturers, glazing and installation specialists, retrofit contractors, and building contractors able to manage housing work at scale. The requirement is specifically concerned with fitting windows rather than general property maintenance, so businesses should have relevant installation capability and experience of delivering work across occupied or managed housing stock.

The procurement has reached award stage: P. Casey & Co. Limited and Emanuel Whittaker Limited were selected for the single lot, subject to the standstill period ending on 3 September 2026. The award date is 24 August 2026. The award value is £12,718,500 excluding VAT, or £15,262,200 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 14 September 2026 to 13 September 2029, with two possible 12-month extensions, giving a maximum end date of 13 September 2031. Be One Homes used an open procedure. Price carried 60% of the evaluation, with quality criteria covering customer care, work and management, health and safety, cold bridging, social value and environmental sustainability. There were 31 bids and 25 final-stage bids.

This award shows sustained demand from Be One Homes for high-volume window supply and installation delivered through a two-contractor model. A credible future competitor would need established experience in window installation and retrofit or energy-efficiency measures, together with PAS 2030 accreditation or equivalent technical competence. Operational capacity is important: the requirement called for delivery at pace, including around 400 windows from commencement through the early delivery phase. Strong performance would also require robust customer-care arrangements, quality and project management controls, effective health-and-safety systems, and the ability to address cold bridging. Suppliers should be able to evidence social-value outputs and environmental sustainability, while remaining competitive on price. The competition attracted 25 final-stage bids, including 18 from SMEs.
