UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Lancashire Borough Council is procuring the supply and installation of carpets and vinyl flooring for its furnished tenancies. The requirement combines flooring materials with associated floor and wall covering work, so it is relevant to contractors able to source, measure, deliver and install both carpet and vinyl products. The work is for the Council’s furnished housing in West Lancashire, with delivery identified in the United Kingdom. The buyer is West Lancashire Borough Council, based in Ormskirk. This is primarily a goods procurement, although installation is an essential part of the service. Suppliers may need to manage the full process from materials supply through to completed flooring installation across the Council’s furnished tenancies.

The procurement has reached tender: the Council invited offers through an open procedure. Tenders were to be submitted electronically through The Chest by 14:00 on 13 August 2026, and enquiries could be submitted until 14:00 on 10 August 2026. The contract is valued at £600,000 excluding VAT, or £720,000 including VAT. The planned contract period is 21 September 2026 to 20 September 2029, with renewal rights allowing the arrangement to continue until 20 September 2031. The Council expected to finalise the award by 31 August 2026. Evaluation is split equally between price, weighted at 50%, and the quality of the method statement, also weighted at 50%.

This opportunity suits flooring contractors, flooring specialists and building-finish companies that can supply and install both carpets and vinyl flooring. It is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so smaller capable suppliers can compete alongside larger firms. The requirement calls for practical installation capacity as well as reliable access to suitable flooring materials, with the ability to deliver completed work for furnished tenancies. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate economic and technical capability and to submit a clear method statement explaining how they will provide a quality service. Businesses with relevant flooring supply, fitting and housing-maintenance experience are likely to be well placed.
