UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Double Glazing Units Demist Repair Services is currently in the planning stage, initiated by LiveWest Homes Limited, a sub-central government public authority in the United Kingdom. The focus is on the repair and maintenance industry category, specifically targeting the restoration or repair of failed double-glazed units. Located in Exeter, LiveWest Homes is seeking preliminary market engagement to assess suppliers' capabilities, with a deadline for responses set for 30th September 2026. Interested parties are encouraged to provide evidence of previous successes in the social housing and public sectors. The procurement process, under legal basis UKPGA 2023/54, represents a significant opportunity for service providers in regions including UKF, UKG, UKH, UKJ, and UKK.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in innovative repair solutions that can improve the thermal performance and visual clarity of existing double-glazed units without resorting to full replacements will find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities. Businesses able to demonstrate proven solutions that minimise waste and carbon impact within social housing or similar property portfolios have an advantageous position. The initial market engagement could lead to a formal tender if sufficient interest is demonstrated, paving the way for potentially lucrative contracts from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2030.

Notice Title

Double Glazing Units Demist Repair Services

Notice Description

Bromford Flagship LiveWest is seeking to understand market capability for the provision of a repair-first solution for failed, misted or blown double-glazed units. The solution should, where technically appropriate, retain the existing double-glazed unit and treat or restore it to remove internal condensation, restore visual clarity, support thermal performance, reduce unnecessary replacement, and minimise waste and carbon impact. Suppliers are invited to provide details of any proven, warranted solutions they can offer for the restoration or repair of failed double-glazed units, including evidence of previous delivery in social housing, local authority, public sector or comparable property portfolios.

Planning Information

Should multiple suppliers demonstrate the capability to deliver the required service, a formal tender process will be undertaken. We would be grateful if interested parties could provide information outlining any proven and warranted solutions available for the restoration or repair of failed double-glazed units. Please include evidence of successful delivery within social housing, local authority, public sector, or other comparable property portfolios.
