This is a Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) contract for adaptations and modifications to help disabled people live independently in their homes. The contract is being procured by North Lincolnshire Council (NLC) and is split into multiple lots — you're looking at Lot 8 specifically.
Requirements
- No specific requirements listed in the notice — check the full tender documents.
- Likely to require experience with DFG-funded home adaptation work
- Probable requirement for public liability insurance
- Likely need for safeguarding checks (working with vulnerable adults and children)
- May require compliance with Building Regulations and relevant health & safety standards
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Design and install disabled facilities adaptations to homes (exact scope depends on Lot 8 specification)
- Carry out site surveys and assessments of client needs
- Obtain necessary planning permission and Building Regulation approval where required
- Install adaptations (may include ramps, wet rooms, stair lifts, accessible entrances, bathroom modifications, etc.)
- Complete work to DFG standards and client satisfaction
- Provide completion documentation and certificates
How to Read This Tender
- 1Check the 'Lot 8' specification document carefully — each lot within a DFG framework is usually different (e.g. Lot 8 might be bathroom adaptations, while Lot 7 is ramps). Don't assume what's in Lot 8 based on other lots.
- 2DFG contracts are heavily regulated by the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996. Familiarise yourself with DFG funding rules — there are strict grant limits and eligible works.
- 3Look for the contract terms, payment schedule, and whether this is a framework agreement (where you're pre-qualified and then bid on individual jobs) or a specific project contract.
- 4Check timescales carefully — DFG work often has strict completion deadlines because grants expire and vulnerable clients are waiting.
- 5Review any 'quality standards' or 'performance metrics' section — councils often measure satisfaction rates and complaint handling.
Tips for Small Businesses
- DFG lots are often suitable for smaller specialist contractors. Consider whether your team has experience with disabled clients and sensitive home adaptations — this matters more than size.
- If the contract value is large, explore subcontracting with other local tradespeople rather than trying to do everything in-house. Many successful DFG bidders use trusted subcontractor networks.
- Social value is often scored in DFG tenders — highlight local employment, training opportunities, or partnerships with disability charities. Councils want to see you understand the vulnerable people you're helping.
