Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is procuring a minor adaptations service, combining construction and building installation work with related services. The work involves low-level, non-structural changes to people’s home environments to improve accessibility, reduce risk, promote mobility and support everyday activities. The supplier will provide an end-to-end service: managing referrals, arranging appointments, supplying materials, installing adaptations, communicating with residents, reporting completed work, maintaining records and providing performance reports. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. It suits organisations able to coordinate responsive property adaptation work with residents and manage the associated administrative, reporting and communication requirements for a public authority.

The process has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The deadline for enquiries was 24 August 2026 at 16:00, and offers were due electronically or by another permitted method by 9 September 2026 at 11:00. The single contract is scheduled to run from 16 November 2026 to 15 November 2028. Its estimated value is £920,000 excluding VAT, or £1,104,000 including VAT. The council may extend it by two further 12-month periods, with the maximum end date of 15 July 2030. Quality carries 50% of the evaluation, price 45% and social value 5%. Suppliers must pass every minimum-requirement question in Part 4 of the tender documents.

This opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. It is relevant to providers with practical experience of minor home adaptations, building fittings, installation or completion works, particularly where they can deliver the full customer journey rather than only individual installations. The appointed supplier will need the capacity to manage referrals, schedule appointments, source and supply materials, complete work in residents’ homes, communicate clearly with residents and produce completion records. Strong contract administration, data management and performance reporting will also be important. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate that they can meet all the minimum requirements and answer every qualifying question successfully, while contributing credible social value alongside quality delivery.
