UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Vico Homes Limited is preparing a procurement for site cabins and welfare services, covering modular and portable buildings for use on its housing and construction projects. The requirement is intended to support Vico Homes’ portfolio of more than 32,000 properties in the Wakefield district and its wider operating area. The anticipated programme covers approximately 23 projects. Delivery is expected across Vico Homes’ operating area in England, including the Wakefield district. The main requirement is classified as goods, but suppliers should expect the scope to include associated site welfare provision as well as the supply of cabins or other portable facilities. This may suit manufacturers, suppliers, hire companies and welfare-service providers able to support multiple sites and projects.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a pre-market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. Vico Homes is seeking market feedback on the proposed specification, delivery model, contract strategy and programme requirements before developing the procurement. Market engagement is scheduled to reach its stated milestone by 1 September 2026. The anticipated contract period is 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2028, with a possible extension taking the maximum period to 30 November 2029. The estimated gross value is £1,000,000, including VAT, and the procurement is above the relevant threshold. The planned requirement is structured as one lot, marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, with renewal expected to be available.

The work is likely to suit suppliers with established capability in modular or portable buildings, site cabins and temporary welfare facilities. Relevant businesses may include manufacturers, distributors, accommodation or welfare-unit hire companies, and providers able to deliver, install, maintain, relocate and remove facilities across a programme of construction or housing projects. The scale and spread of the anticipated programme favour suppliers with sufficient stock, operational capacity and responsive logistics to support several projects over successive years. Firms that can offer an integrated service covering cabins and welfare provision may be well placed when the requirement reaches the market. The planned market engagement gives potential suppliers an opportunity to help shape the specification, delivery model, contract strategy and programme before a future competition.
