Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council has successfully completed a procurement process under the Affordable Housing scheme in Kinghorn, Fife. This project involves the design and construction of 25 new homes dedicated to social rent, and it was executed through a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication due to exclusive rights held by the developer on the land. This contract was awarded to Glenesk Homes Ltd, a supplier based in Glasgow, on 13th March 2025 with a total contract value of £5,419,904.47. The procurement process was classified under the CPV code 45215214 for residential homes construction work and is a part of Fife Council's broader housing delivery programme in the UKM72 region. The process was tagged as complete and had a single bid submitted, reflecting the unique circumstances of the award.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in residential construction, particularly those with expertise in social housing. Given the nature of the procurement, it may be particularly suited to SMEs that can effectively negotiate direct awards where competition is limited due to technical preconditions or existing agreements. For companies looking to expand within regional developments, aligning with local authorities on similar projects could boost growth and establish a robust portfolio within the public housing sector. Furthermore, businesses with innovative housing solutions may also establish collaborations that could influence future procurement opportunities in this sector.
