UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Vico Homes Limited, a housing association managing homes across northern England, procured a single-supplier fencing supply and installation service for its managed and owned property boundaries. The requirement covers both supply-only and supply-and-fit work: timber fencing and trip rail, concrete posts and gravel boards, postcrete, timber pedestrian gates and gate furniture. The purpose is to provide an efficient, safe service that improves boundary provision and customer experience. Delivery locations are recorded in England across the East Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber. This combines goods supply with fencing installation work (CPV 34928200 and 45340000). The requirement was not divided into lots, reflecting Vico Homes’ intention to appoint one supplier for the service.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to L D Environmental Solutions Limited, an SME based in Featherstone. The award was made on 28 September 2026, and the contract was signed on 19 October 2026. Its gross value is £970,604.77. The contract runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028, with three optional 12-month extensions subject to performance review; the possible period therefore extends to 31 October 2031. The tender used an open procedure. Evaluation weighted quality response to the specification at 50%, cost at 40% and social value at 10%. The tender submission deadline was 24 August 2026, and the stated award decision deadline was 25 September 2026. Seven bids were received, with five reaching the final stage.

For suppliers considering comparable future work with Vico Homes, this award shows demand for a single contractor able to combine fencing materials supply with installation across the housing association’s property boundaries. Credible competitors would need to source and fit timber fencing, trip rail and pedestrian gates, alongside concrete posts, gravel boards, postcrete and gate furniture, and demonstrate safe, effective delivery. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on the quality of the response to the specification than on price, while social value also contributed to the assessment. The contract’s performance measures cover schedule adherence, quality assurance checks and installation defect rates, each monitored quarterly. Suppliers should be equipped to manage both supply-only and installation requirements and evidence quality control, reliable scheduling and low defects. The procurement was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.
