Blinds Tenders and Contracts

A blinds tender covers the supply, installation or replacement of window blinds, including vertical blinds and roller blinds. It also includes measured term contracts for ongoing blind repairs and replacement across a buyer's estate.

Notices name vertical blinds, roller blinds, blackout blinds and interior window blinds. Some also cover related window furnishings such as privacy film fitted at the same time.

Stotles brings together blinds tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. Blinds are often let inside refurbishment, window replacement and furnishings contracts, so look for them within those notices as well as under their own title.

Blinds with looped cords must meet the child safety requirements of BS EN 13120, and fabrics in public buildings are often expected to meet fire safety standards. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar contracts at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.

Councils, NHS trusts, universities, academy trusts, police bodies and government departments are regular buyers. Blinds are frequently procured as part of a refurbishment or fit-out contract rather than on their own.

Read estates refurbishment programmes, window replacement schemes, void property refurbishment plans and expiry dates for existing blind maintenance contracts, which show work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.

Blinds notices carry 39515400 (Blinds), 39515410 (Interior blinds) and 45421143 (Installation work of blinds). Some carry general facilities management codes instead.
