Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive is establishing a framework for the supply and delivery of glass and glazing materials for its requirements in Northern Ireland. The goods are classified as glass (CPV 14820000). The requirement is for supply and delivery rather than installation or glazing works, and the framework gives the Housing Executive a route to obtain these materials through later call-off competitions.

The procurement has been awarded to Excel Glass Limited, a Belfast supplier. The award was made on 6 October 2026 and is recorded as pending. The award value is £330,000 excluding VAT (£396,000 including VAT). The award contract period is 19 October 2026 to 18 October 2029, with options available. This is a single-lot, open competitive flexible procedure to establish a closed framework agreement. Framework call-offs will reopen competition, with awards based entirely on cost. The tender submission deadline was 26 August 2026; the deadline for enquiries was 19 August 2026. One bid was received, from an SME.

This outcome shows demand from the Northern Ireland Housing Executive for suppliers able to provide and deliver glass and glazing materials across Northern Ireland. A future competitor would need a dependable supply of the relevant materials and the logistics and capacity to fulfil deliveries for a public housing buyer. The framework’s call-off competitions are based wholly on cost, so competitive pricing will be central to succeeding, alongside the ability to meet the buyer’s specifications and delivery requirements. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that a smaller business has competed successfully for this requirement. The framework route means suppliers should be equipped to respond to individual competitions as requirements arise, rather than relying on a single one-off purchase.
