Summary of the contracting process

North Yorkshire Council is exploring bathroom replacement works for its social housing stock. The requirement covers planned capital bathroom replacements and ad-hoc replacements arising from disrepair cases or complaints. The work includes bathroom construction, plumbing and sanitary works, combining construction activity with related services. Delivery is across North Yorkshire. The council is seeking information to understand the scope of the requirement, the range of solutions available and the feasibility of the work, and to help prepare a specification for a possible future procurement. This is a single requirement rather than a package of separately described lots. It is relevant to contractors able to deliver bathroom refurbishment and associated plumbing works in social housing, including both planned programmes and responsive replacement work.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the council has announced an intention to procure and is conducting preliminary market engagement, not inviting tenders. The council expects the next notice to be published by 30 November 2026. Engagement is scheduled to run to 25 September 2026. The anticipated contract is expected to start on 5 April 2027 and run to 4 April 2030, with a possible extension to 4 April 2032. The estimated value is £4,000,000 excluding VAT, or £4,800,000 including VAT, for the full requirement. The council expects to use an open procedure for the future tender, and identifies the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The work is likely to suit bathroom refurbishment contractors, plumbing and sanitary specialists, and building contractors with experience delivering works in occupied or managed social housing environments. Suppliers should prepare to demonstrate the practical ability to replace bathrooms as part of a planned capital programme, while also responding to individual replacements triggered by disrepair cases or complaints. The requirement may suit small and medium-sized enterprises, either bidding independently or forming delivery partnerships where broader construction and plumbing capacity is needed. Businesses that can offer reliable site delivery, manage varied replacement requirements and support a sustained programme of housing works should monitor the procurement as the council develops its specification and moves towards the future tender.
