Summary of the contracting process

Choice Housing Ireland Limited is procuring scaffolding works through its procurement team, Choice Services Ireland Limited. The requirement covers scaffolding services for Choice Services, including erection, dismantling and associated scaffolding work. The buyer is based in Belfast, and the awarded supplier, Walsh Scaffolding Limited, is based in Lisburn. This is a works contract rather than a supply or consultancy opportunity. The procurement is relevant to businesses that provide commercial scaffolding services and can support housing-related works for a public undertaking in Northern Ireland. The requirement is arranged as a single package covering the full scaffolding service rather than separate specialist packages.

The procurement has reached the award stage: Walsh Scaffolding Limited was selected on 20 July 2026 after an open procedure, with one bid received. The estimated gross value was £864,000 and the awarded gross value was £850,000. The award was made on a framework agreement with reopening of competition. The award standstill period ends on 6 August 2026, with signature scheduled for 7 August 2026. The awarded contract period is 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2028, with one 12-month renewal option extending the maximum period to 7 August 2029. Evaluation weighted price at 70% and quality and social value at 30%.

For a future requirement of this type, a credible competitor would need established capability to erect and dismantle scaffolding and deliver the full range of commercial scaffolding work required by Choice Services. The single-bid outcome shows that the buyer has tested the market through an open procedure, while the awarded supplier’s scale indicates that capacity to deliver a substantial housing-related programme matters. Suppliers should be able to operate through a framework with further competitions, prepare competitive pricing, and demonstrate quality and social value in their proposals. Experience coordinating safely and reliably across multiple works, maintaining sufficient labour and equipment, and responding to call-offs would strengthen a future bid.
