    Brief

    VIVID is seeking contractor(s) to deliver a comprehensive retrofit programme for 2025-2030, targeting 3,500 homes that do not currently meet EPC C standards. The programme uses VIVID's own budgets combined with potential Warm Homes: Social Housing Funding and is not contingent on securing grant funding. The initiative aligns with VIVID's Net Zero Investment Plan, which aims to bring all 36,000 homes to EPC C by 2030 and achieve net zero heat demand by 2050. The retrofit works will employ a fabric-first approach, prioritizing building envelope improvements such as insulation, air-tightness, and heat loss reduction before considering mechanical heating solutions. Contractors should have experience delivering large-scale retrofit programmes for social housing and understand sustainability-focused building performance standards.
