UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Yorkshire Council is exploring a future programme of cyclical painting and pre-painting works across North Yorkshire. The requirement is classified as services and covers decoration work together with associated repair and maintenance services. The council is seeking supplier information to define the likely scope, understand the range of solutions available and help prepare a future tender specification. This is therefore relevant to painting and decorating contractors, property maintenance businesses and specialist repair providers able to deliver planned programmes across the council’s area. The work is intended to support recurring property upkeep rather than a single isolated decorating assignment, so suppliers with an organised approach to surveying, preparation, painting and associated repairs should monitor its development.

The procurement is at the planning stage and is not an invitation to tender. North Yorkshire Council has scheduled preliminary market engagement, with responses or engagement activity expected by 25 September 2026, and anticipates publishing a subsequent notice by 30 November 2026. One lot is planned. The estimated value is £3,000,000 excluding VAT, or £3,600,000 including VAT. The proposed contract period is 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2029, with renewal available up to 28 February 2033. The council has indicated that the procurement is above the applicable threshold and that the lot is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No award procedure or evaluation basis has yet been set out.

This early engagement is most relevant to painting and decorating contractors, building maintenance firms and repair-and-maintenance providers that can contribute practical information before the future specification is finalised. Suppliers should be able to explain their approach to cyclical programmes, pre-painting preparation, decoration and related repairs, including how they would manage work across multiple properties and maintain consistent quality. The council is specifically looking to understand potential market solutions and the feasibility of the requirement, giving experienced providers an opportunity to help shape the eventual scope. Small and medium-sized businesses are expressly considered suitable, so the process may suit regional contractors as well as larger firms, provided they can demonstrate the operational capacity and relevant delivery experience needed for a planned council-wide programme.
