Summary of the contracting process

Cross Keys Homes sought a contractor to supply and fit carpet and vinyl floor coverings for its housing and property operations. The requirement is a flooring supply-and-installation service, covering building-installation maintenance activity. Delivery was across the United Kingdom, with the buying organisation based in Peterborough. The procurement was structured as a single requirement and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The intended service combined the provision of flooring materials with their installation, so relevant suppliers are flooring contractors, flooring manufacturers with installation capability, or businesses able to manage both supply and fitting. The requirement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement, and suppliers were expected to provide the service in English.

The procurement reached tender: Cross Keys Homes invited offers through an accelerated selective competitive flexible procedure, comprising shortlisting, an invitation-to-tender stage, evaluation and award. Expressions of interest were due by 17 June 2026 at 12:00. The buyer intended to shortlist exactly three candidates. The estimated value was £300,000 gross, including VAT, for the single lot. Evaluation allocated 60% to quality and 40% to price. The planned contract period was 3 August 2026 to 2 August 2029, with renewal options of 12 months plus 12 months, potentially extending to 2 August 2031. The tender and lot were cancelled. Cross Keys Homes withdrew the process before award because it needed to add void property works and further develop and clarify the specification.

This opportunity suited small and medium-sized flooring businesses with the capability to source and install carpet and vinyl across the required service area. The selection approach favoured local and known suppliers at the shortlisting stage, while the later evaluation placed greater emphasis on quality than price. Suppliers therefore needed credible delivery arrangements, competent installation teams and the capacity to provide flooring materials and fitting as an integrated service. Experience of building maintenance or comparable property works would have been relevant to the stated classification and service scope. The buyer required English-language submissions and did not allow electronic submission. Payment terms were monthly invoicing, with payment due 30 days after approval. A revised procurement was intended after the scope and specification were completed.
