UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Vico Homes Limited intends to procure air-conditioning servicing and maintenance across its housing and other assets. The requirement covers the repair and maintenance of electrical and mechanical building installations, with the aim of appointing a single contractor to provide the service across the organisation’s assets. Delivery is across Vico Homes’ assets in the United Kingdom. This is a services requirement rather than a supply or construction project. It should be relevant to businesses that maintain commercial or residential air-conditioning systems, including contractors able to provide planned servicing, reactive repairs and maintenance across a dispersed property portfolio. The buyer is Vico Homes Limited, based in Castleford, West Yorkshire.

The procurement is at the planning stage: Vico Homes Limited has stated an intention to procure, but this is not an invitation to tender. The buyer plans market engagement to gauge supplier interest and understand how air-conditioning servicing and maintenance could be delivered by a single contractor. The engagement is scheduled for 4 September 2026. The anticipated contract period is 13 December 2026 to 12 December 2029, with a possible extension to 12 December 2031. The estimated value is £267,000 excluding VAT, or £320,400 including VAT. There is one lot, currently in planning, and the lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement is above the applicable threshold.

This will suit an air-conditioning service and maintenance contractor with the operational capacity to act as a single provider across Vico Homes’ assets in the United Kingdom. Relevant suppliers are likely to have in-house or managed engineering capability for maintaining electrical and mechanical building installations, responding to faults and carrying out routine servicing. The requirement may favour businesses able to coordinate engineers, scheduling, compliance records, parts and customer communication across multiple properties, rather than firms focused only on isolated installations. Small and medium-sized enterprises are expressly considered suitable for the lot. Businesses with experience supporting housing providers, commercial estates or other multi-site property portfolios should use the market engagement to explain how they could deliver a consistent service.
