Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council procured vouchers and essential household items for households assessed as homeless. The requirement covers the supply of household goods and vouchers, classified under furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances and cleaning products. Delivery is associated with Bradford and the wider West Yorkshire area. This is a goods requirement rather than a construction or professional services contract. The council is the buyer and the arrangement is intended to support households needing essential items following an assessment of homelessness. Businesses supplying household furnishings, domestic appliances, cleaning products or related voucher-based support may find the requirement relevant, particularly where they can serve households across the council’s area.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to HUGGG Ltd. It used a limited procedure without a prior published competition, with the council relying on a Commercial Agreement that permits direct award. The requirement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The contract value is £400,000. The contract was signed on 21 June 2026 and is active. The award covered the single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled in the tender record. The award criterion was price, and one bid was recorded for the lot. The arrangement included an option for three additional 12-month periods. HUGGG Ltd is the named supplier.

This procurement indicates established demand from Bradford Council for a combined service involving essential household goods and vouchers for people assessed as homeless. Suppliers considering future work of this type would need dependable access to furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances and cleaning products, together with the ability to provide or administer vouchers. The price-only evaluation shows that competitive pricing would be central to the buyer’s assessment. Credibility would also depend on practical fulfilment: coordinating different item types, delivering to households in the Bradford and West Yorkshire area, and supporting a public-sector service concerned with urgent household needs. The selected supplier was classified as a large organisation, indicating that operational capacity and reliable supply arrangements may be important for this requirement.
