## Summary

Wigan Council has successfully completed the award phase of the "Housing with Care Goods and Services Framework" contract, spanning from 2026 to 2034. The council, acting as the buyer, has executed the procurement process through an open procedure, reflecting a commitment to community wealth building by establishing partnerships with businesses that align with their values. This procurement focuses on goods and services within the furniture and domestic appliances industry, with a specific emphasis on supporting vulnerable residents in the UKD region. The framework agreement comprises nine lots, including items such as sofas, televisions, bedroom furniture, and more, with awards being pending as of February 17, 2026. The standstill period concludes on February 26, 2026, with the contract commencing on April 1, 2026.

This tender opens up significant opportunities for both small and large businesses, especially those specialising in household and care goods, such as furniture and domestic appliances. SMEs are particularly encouraged, as all bids across the lots have come from SMEs, highlighting an inclusive approach that could foster local business growth and community development. With comprehensive involvement needed in the supply and installation of goods, companies with robust quality processes and commitment to community values will find this framework advantageous.
