## Summary

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council procured the supply of Dow Corning silicones for its doors and windows, which are installed to a high standard. This is a goods requirement for construction materials, classified under CPV 44192000 (other miscellaneous construction materials). Delivery is associated with West Yorkshire, with the council based in Bradford. The requirement is focused on supplying the specified silicone products rather than installation, design or broader construction works. It would suit manufacturers, distributors and specialist merchants able to provide Dow Corning silicones reliably for a public-sector building maintenance or construction programme. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for services and facilities across the Bradford district.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It comprised one lot and received one valid bid. SHERWIN-WILLIAMS UK LIMITED was awarded the contract on 20 June 2026. The contract was signed on 11 June 2026 and runs from 20 June 2026 to 12 July 2027, with an option to extend by one further 12-month period to 12 July 2028. The awarded value is £4,664,420 excluding VAT and £5,975,304 including VAT. The award and contract are active. The published outcome shows a single supplier selected for the full requirement; no separate evaluation weighting or award criteria are stated in the procurement information.

This award indicates substantial, recurring demand for silicone products used with doors and windows across Bradford Council’s construction or property activity. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to Dow Corning silicones, strong manufacturer or authorised-distributor relationships, and the capacity to supply a sizeable public-sector requirement consistently over an extended period. Product quality and conformity would be important because the materials support high-standard door and window installation. Suppliers should also be able to manage public-sector ordering, delivery across West Yorkshire and continuity of supply. The only recorded bidder was a large company and was successful, suggesting that scale, established distribution and the ability to support the council’s volume requirements may be commercially relevant when this type of requirement returns.
