Summary of the contracting process

Vico Homes Limited is buying air-conditioning servicing, repair and maintenance across its housing assets, along with ad hoc installation and emergency call-outs. The work covers mechanical and electrical building-installation maintenance and is procured as a service. Delivery is in the United Kingdom; the buyer is based in Castleford. The requirement brings routine upkeep, reactive repairs, installation work and emergency response together under one contractor, so it suits firms able to provide the full range rather than only a single service element.

Vico Homes invited offers through an open procedure. The submission deadline was 20 October 2026 at 12:00, and the stated award decision date was 20 November 2026. The contract period runs from 13 December 2026 to 12 December 2029, with an option for two further 12-month periods, reviewed annually and subject to satisfactory performance and benchmarking, extending to 12 December 2031. The stated estimated value is £267,000 excluding VAT (£320,400 including VAT), although the buyer also says there is no minimum or maximum value of works. There is one lot. Evaluation is weighted 50% price, 40% quality and 10% social value. Bids may be submitted electronically in English through the Proactis S2C opportunities portal. The submission deadline was extended because of portal attachment-upload issues.

The contract could suit an air-conditioning contractor able to combine planned servicing and maintenance with repair work, ad hoc installation and emergency call-outs across a housing portfolio. A single supplier is sought for this combined service, so bidders should be able to organise both scheduled work and responsive attendance, and cover the breadth of the requirement rather than just installation or maintenance alone. Small and medium-sized enterprises are explicitly considered suitable to bid. Quality and social value together account for half of the evaluation, alongside price, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the strength of their service delivery and their social-value offer as well as competitive pricing. The stated value is an estimate, while the buyer describes the volume of works as having no minimum or maximum, making flexibility in resourcing relevant.
