Summary of the contracting process

Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE), based in Inverness, Scotland, has concluded a public procurement process for property management and marketing services across different regions, including Argyll and Innse Gall and other HIE areas. The procurement began with an award notice issued on 3rd November 2025, for services encompassing property management, valuation, and marketing, under two framework agreements that will run from 5th November 2025 to 4th November 2028, with an option to extend for an additional year if required. The agreements were awarded through an open procedure, with Ryden securing the contract for Argyll and Innse Gall and F.G. Burnett Limited for the rest of the HIE area. This procurement falls under the commercial property management category, identified by the CPV code 70332200. The frameworks are set as open procedures and are supported by a framework agreement ensuring a structured partnership with the selected suppliers.

This tender offers considerable business growth potential for firms specializing in property management and marketing services, particularly those experienced in handling commercial properties. The contract terms highlight an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) given the presence of SMEs among the awarded suppliers. Moreover, with optional expansions and flexibility built into the contract, businesses capable of scaling their operations and adapting to policy changes are well-suited for these opportunities. The framework also stresses aspects like sustainability, community benefits, and quality criteria such as financial management and property marketing, making it attractive for companies committed to ethical and comprehensive service delivery. The procurement process encourages competition among qualified firms, paving the way for businesses to engage in substantial regional development projects across the Scottish Highlands and Islands.
