## Summary

North Lanarkshire Council is planning a housing kitchen replacement programme covering the supply, delivery and installation of replacement domestic kitchens across its Council housing stock. The work is expected to take place in occupied Council properties throughout North Lanarkshire. It is a works contract involving domestic kitchen replacement and associated planned maintenance activities, including kitchen units and fittings, installation works, related building components and associated services. The programme is intended to support significant investment in the Council’s housing stock. The Council is considering how the works should be packaged, structured and delivered, including the potential use of lots. The requirement will suit contractors able to manage large-scale kitchen renewal programmes in social housing settings while working safely and considerately in occupied homes.

This is a planned procurement at the preliminary market-engagement stage, not a call for competition. The Council is using a Prior Information Notice and Request for Information to gather views on market capacity, supply chains, contract structures, mobilisation, delivery models, risks and innovation. The preferred procurement strategy and route to market have not been decided; options include an existing national framework or a future open-market procurement. The current indicative investment profile is approximately £65 million, forecast across 2027/28 to 2030/31. The Council expects a further notice around 5 October 2026. Interested organisations are invited to complete the accompanying questionnaire by the date stated in its guidance. Responses will inform future procurement and investment planning and will not be evaluated in a later tender.

This engagement will suit experienced contractors operating in the social housing, planned maintenance and kitchen replacement sectors, including organisations of different sizes that may contribute as prime contractors, delivery partners or supply-chain businesses. Relevant capability includes supplying and installing domestic kitchens at programme scale, managing work in occupied homes, mobilising resources across a sizeable housing stock and maintaining reliable access to materials, labour and specialist trades. The Council is seeking evidence of market capacity, resource availability, supply-chain resilience, delivery capability, programme-risk management and practical contract structures. Businesses with ideas for innovation, efficient delivery models, suitable packaging or lotting arrangements can help shape the future requirement. This is an opportunity to prepare and provide commercial intelligence, not to bid for a contract at this stage.

## Notice

The Council is planning a significant programme of investment for the supply, delivery and installation of replacement domestic kitchens within occupied Council properties. The current indicative investment profile is forecast to be approximately 65 million GBP over the period 2027/28 to 2030/31. Through this Prior Information Notice (PIN) and accompanying Request for Information (RFI), the Council wishes to engage with contractors, to gain a better understanding of current market capacity, supply chain capability, contract structures, mobilisation requirements, and innovation opportunities associated with the delivery of large-scale housing kitchen replacement programmes. The Council is aware of a number of national framework arrangements currently operating within the marketplace and of the various procurement routes available under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
