What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionVIVID would like to appoint a new contractor(s) to deliver its 2025-30 retrofit programme. We are using our own budgets and Warm Homes: Social Housing Funding (if bid is successful). Our programme is not entirely dependent on securing grant funding.
Our programme is informed by our Net Zero Investment Plan which identifies the measures and investment required to get all of our 36,000 homes to EPC C by 2030 and our net zero heat demand targets by 2050. The 2025-30 programme will achieve EPC C for all 3500 VIVID homes that currently don't meet the target. This will be achieved using a fabric first approach.
- Not divided into lots: We will be awarding 2 contracts to cover all of our operational area. These will be identical contracts with works split evenly across the 2.
- How the procedure runs: PSQ stage, Dialogue , ITT Stage
CPV: Construction work

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: ITT Stage
- Price: ITT Stage
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
