## Summary

Moat Homes Limited, located in Dartford, England, is initiating a tender process titled "Interior Consultancy for Retirement Living," aimed at improving the interior designs of their retirement housing. This procurement, classified under the CPV code for interior design services, is currently in the planning stage, with key milestones including an engagement end date set for 28th November 2019. The organisation aims to refocus its residential offerings to enhance community interaction and meet the evolving needs of over 1,500 older tenants across London and the South East.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in interior design, furniture design, and design support services, particularly those that are Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Companies that can provide innovative solutions to enhance communal spaces within retirement living schemes will be well-suited to compete. As the sector seeks to create vibrant living environments, innovative designs and community-centric approaches will be vital for successful bids, allowing participating businesses to expand their portfolios and establish strong relationships within the social housing space.

## Notice

We are a proud provider of retirement living with over 1,500 homes. We offer a combination of traditional sheltered housing schemes with communal living spaces and independent sheltered homes. Earlier this year we developed our vision for Retirement Living housing to enable us to refocus the services and homes we offer to our older tenants. The needs and wants of our customer base are changing and we want to embrace this change to meet the needs of our current and future older tenants. It is not just about a home but a lifestyle. Under our Quality homes strand, we are finding the communal lounge spaces are underutilised with little community interaction. When you enter a great retirement scheme you should feel the 'heartbeat of the community' and we don't feel this in some of our schemes. Over the years our approach for cyclical decorating and refreshing interiors has taken a mixed approach which has led to a range of different interiors in our schemes. We are ready for a change in approach.
