## Summary

VIVID Housing Ltd procured the supply and installation of communal entrance doors, with associated services, through a programme of works across its housing stock in South East England. The work involved multiple addresses and is categorised as building works, specifically door installation. The requirement was for communal entrances rather than individual domestic doors. It was arranged as a call-off from LHC’s Doorsets, Fire Doors and Communal Entrance Doors framework. The selected supplier was F. Bamford Engineering Limited. This requirement is most relevant to firms that supply and install communal entrance doors and can organise delivery across a housing provider’s dispersed stock.

The procurement is complete and a supplier was selected. VIVID Housing Ltd awarded the work to F. Bamford Engineering Limited; the active contract is valued at £120,000. The contract was signed on 10 September 2026. The procedure was a limited award without a prior competition call, made through the LHC framework. The stated rationale was extreme urgency arising from unforeseeable events. The procurement was divided into one lot, which was marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active. One bid was reported for the lot, and price was the sole stated award criterion. The available contract details do not establish a delivery period, so no contract duration can be stated.

For suppliers assessing comparable future work from VIVID Housing Ltd, this award demonstrates demand for communal entrance door supply and installation, including associated services delivered through a programme across multiple housing addresses. A credible competitor would need to provide the doors and installation as an integrated offer and demonstrate the capacity to coordinate work at dispersed sites. The buyer used an LHC framework call-off, so relevant framework access and the ability to meet its call-off requirements would matter. The recorded award was assessed on price alone, making competitive pricing central to the stated evaluation basis. The award provides evidence of the type and scale of requirement this buyer has placed; it does not establish particular technical accreditations or additional experience requirements.
