Summary of the contracting process

The Guinness Partnership Limited is planning a single programme for aids and adaptations to its homes, with construction work delivered through the Disabled Facilities Grant programme. The purpose is to help homes meet the needs of residents with disabilities and long-term health conditions. The scope is expected to involve housing adaptations commissioned in connection with around 140 local authorities. Delivery is intended across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is a works requirement rather than a supply-only or professional-services commission. The buyer is seeking input from organisations involved in delivering housing adaptations before it defines its procurement approach.

This procurement is at the planning stage: The Guinness Partnership Limited has stated an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The buyer plans to carry out initial market engagement to understand providers’ capacity, capability and interest, then define its approach. The planned procurement has one lot and is expected to run from 1 September 2027 to 31 August 2030, with a possible renewal or extension to 31 August 2031. The buyer’s expected date for the next notice is 1 July 2027. The lot is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No contract value or budget is stated. The final procedure and evaluation arrangements will be shaped after market engagement.

This will suit housing adaptation contractors and construction providers able to assess, design, coordinate and deliver physical changes to homes for residents with disabilities or long-term health conditions. Suppliers with experience delivering work funded through the Disabled Facilities Grant programme, and with the operational capacity to work across multiple local-authority areas, should prepare to engage with the buyer. The geographic scope is broad, covering England, and the buyer’s existing relationships with around 140 local authorities indicate a potentially multi-area delivery model. The lot is identified as suitable for SMEs, so smaller specialist firms may be well placed to contribute, either directly or through regional delivery arrangements. Providers should be ready to explain their relevant adaptation experience, capacity and service model during the planned market engagement.
