UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

LiveWest Homes Limited is exploring services to repair and restore failed, misted or blown double-glazed units across properties in the East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, South East and South West of England. The intended approach is repair first: where technically suitable, suppliers would retain existing units and treat or restore them to remove internal condensation, improve visual clarity and support thermal performance. The service is intended to reduce unnecessary replacement, waste and carbon impact across social housing and comparable property portfolios. This is a building repair and maintenance service, classified under CPV 50000000. The procurement is associated with Bromford, Flagship and LiveWest housing interests.

This process is at the planning and initial market-enquiry stage, rather than a tender invitation. LiveWest Homes Limited expects to use the information gathered to assess whether capable organisations exist; if several suppliers demonstrate the required capability, it intends to run a formal tender. Interested organisations are asked to provide relevant solution and delivery information by 30 September 2026. The planned arrangement is one lot, currently expected to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. The procurement is for services and is below the applicable threshold. The market enquiry seeks information on proven, warranted repair or restoration solutions and evidence of successful delivery in relevant property portfolios.

This will suit specialist glazing, window-repair and building-maintenance suppliers with a technically proven method for restoring failed double-glazed units rather than routinely replacing them. Strong candidates will be able to demonstrate that their solution removes internal condensation, restores visual clarity and supports thermal performance, while reducing waste and carbon impact. The buyer is particularly interested in warranted solutions and evidence of successful delivery in social housing, local-authority, public-sector or comparable property portfolios. SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises are identified as suitable participants. Suppliers should therefore prepare clear technical evidence, warranty terms, case studies and details of their delivery capability across the relevant English regions before any formal tender.

Notice Information

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

This is currently an initial market enquiry to determine whether there are organisations capable of providing this service. 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. Please submit all relevant information to: jenny.marles@livewest.co.uk laura.ahmed@bromford.co.uk
