Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Amey Defence Services Limited focuses on external refurbishments in Leuchars, Scotland, as part of their Regional Accommodation Maintenance Service for the North Region. They operate under the Future Defence Infrastructure Services (FDIS) with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO). The tender involves refurbishing seven properties, including replacing doors, windows, and roofs, with a potential for external wall insulation. Planning started with a budget of £4,500,000 for the 2026/2027 financial year. This opportunity is currently in the planning stage, with future procurement documentation expected by 20 March 2026, and the contract period slated from 5 May 2026 to 31 March 2027. Sub-contractors expressing interest must be verified members of Constructionline (Gold) and comply with several technical and social requirements.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and refurbishment, particularly those interested in operating within Scotland under FDIS and MOD standards. Suitable businesses include SMEs with capabilities in working under the constraints of MOD procurement policies and technical standards such as BIM Level 2 and DefStan 05-138. The competitive quotation procurement method offers incentives as negotiated future works could be based on submitted rates. Participation requires a proactive engagement with Amey in delivering social value and adherence to various insurance and security commitments. This tender allows smaller enterprises proficient in refurbishment to expand their operations and client base by meeting rigorous contractual and compliance standards.
