Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

VIVID Housing Ltd procured the supply and installation of fitted kitchens and bathrooms in its housing properties. The work is classified as installation of fitted kitchens and falls within construction and property-maintenance works. Delivery is across the South East and South West of England. The requirement covers both supplying the kitchen and bathroom components and carrying out their installation, rather than supply-only or installation-only services. It is relevant to contractors with an established housing-maintenance operation, kitchen and bathroom installation teams, and the ability to coordinate materials and site work across a geographically dispersed property portfolio. The buyer is a public-law housing organisation based in Portsmouth, with the requirement focused on maintaining and improving its residential properties.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. VIVID Housing Ltd used a limited procedure without publishing a prior call for competition, making a compliant direct award through the CHIC Kitchens & Bathrooms framework because of extreme urgency arising from unforeseeable events. The requirement was assessed on price. One bid was recorded. Ian Williams Limited was awarded the contract for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 18 September 2026. The contract value is £70,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The tender is marked complete, while the lot itself is recorded as cancelled; the active award and active contract identify Ian Williams Limited as the selected supplier and the live contractual outcome.

This award demonstrates demand from VIVID Housing Ltd for combined kitchen and bathroom supply-and-installation services across housing properties in the South East and South West of England. A credible future competitor would need to manage the complete delivery chain: sourcing suitable kitchen and bathroom products, planning installations, coordinating trades, and completing work reliably in occupied or managed residential properties. The requirement was obtained through the CHIC Kitchens & Bathrooms framework and the award was determined on price, so suppliers seeking similar work would need a route to that framework or an equivalent compliant purchasing route, together with competitive pricing and dependable operational delivery. The selected supplier was a large contractor, indicating the importance of organisational capacity for this buyer’s geographically spread housing work.
