Summary of the contracting process

The Housing Capital Projects 2026-30, initiated by Aberdeen City Council, focus on internal works to houses and flatted properties within Aberdeen City (region UKM50). These projects, classified under "Construction work" (CPV code: 45000000), involve renewing and upgrading elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, and electrical installations. The procurement process is in the active tender stage, following an open procedure. Aberdeen City Council aims to establish a multiple supplier framework with an initial duration of two years, potentially extending with two further one-year periods. Interested suppliers are required to submit Standard Selection Documents (SPDs) by 10th September 2025, 12:00 PM, to progress to the Invitation to Tender phase, with an estimated total framework value of GBP30 million.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for construction firms specialising in residential refurbishment and internal home improvements. Ideal candidates are those with capabilities in design and build, able to meet Aberdeen City Council’s performance targets and community benefits expectations. The procurement involves a competitive evaluation based on 60% quality and 40% price, which encourages suppliers to present comprehensive value propositions balancing top-tier workmanship with competitive pricing. Businesses will need to demonstrate their ability to handle substantial project turnover, approximately GBP3-5 million annually per contractor, and align with the Council's strategic priorities and efficiency goals.

Notice Title

Housing Capital Projects 2026-30 - Internal works to Houses

Notice Description

Multiple Supplier Framework to deliver the design and build aspects of the Internal Works to Houses and flatted properties Framework . This involves work to renew and upgrade elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, electrical installations, joinery, partitions, floors coverings, decoration, and all associated making good. This framework is to have a duration of two years, with the potential for this to be extended by two further periods of one year, during which period a number of call-offs may be initiated. Interested parties are invited to submit completed SPDs that will allow Aberdeen City Council to select bidders to invite to the next stage. These SPD Instructions provide full details of the selection criteria applicable at this stage. Only those bidders who are short-listed as a result of the SPD evaluation process described in these instructions will be issued with an Invitation to Tender (ITT). Aberdeen City Council intends to issue an ITT up to a maximum of SIX bidders. Bidders should note that the estimated value below consists of the provisional budget allocated within the capital plan for all contractors. The actual value per contractor will be expected to be a much smaller proportion following distribution of work amongst an anticipated 3no framework contractors, work carried out by direct in-house resources, contingency allowances, non-access to properties, efficiency savings, and subject to regular reviews and re-allocations of priorities by the Council. The non-binding target is that each framework contractor would receive approximately GBP3-5Million of work turnover per year. The framework contractors will also be required to perform to the council's key performance indicator targets, and community benefits expectations (described elsewhere).
