Summary of the contracting process

Linstone Housing procured gutter-cleaning services under a measured-term contract covering its housing across Linwood, Johnstone, Paisley, Renfrew, Kilbarchan and Bridge of Weir in Renfrewshire. The work is recurring cleaning of gutters, rather than a wider building-maintenance package. Linstone Housing is the buyer and the contract covers one service lot. The procurement describes gutter cleaning throughout the named towns but does not detail individual properties or specify a cleaning frequency. The requirement sits within building-installation maintenance services (CPV 50700000).

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Linstone Housing used an open procedure, with quality weighted at 60% and price at 40%. Bids were due on 20 October 2023. Four bids were received, all from SMEs. Paterson Safety Anchors Ltd was selected for the single lot; the contract was signed on 19 October 2026, with an awarded contract value of £61,616.17. The original estimated value was £252,000. The planned term was four years (1,440 days), with commencement intended by December 2023; no renewal or additional purchase options were specified. Suppliers had to provide two relevant experience examples, staffing and equipment information, and confirm any subcontracting. Financial requirements included minimum turnover and employer’s and public liability insurance.

For suppliers assessing similar future work for Linstone Housing, this award shows demand for a dedicated, measured-term gutter-cleaning service across several Renfrewshire towns, rather than a broad maintenance contract. A credible competitor would need demonstrable experience delivering comparable services, suitable tools, plant and technical equipment, and enough operational and managerial staff to cover a geographically spread housing portfolio. The buyer also required evidence of relevant professional authorisations or memberships where applicable, and the ability to meet specified turnover and insurance thresholds. Staff names and qualifications were required. Performance was to be monitored against key performance indicators, with remedial plans required if performance fell below the acceptable level. The award to an SME and the participation of four SME bidders show that smaller specialist contractors competed for this requirement.
