Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council procured the supply of windows, doors and related items for use by its internal operatives, who would carry out the fitting where required. This is a goods requirement rather than an installation contract, so it is most relevant to manufacturers, distributors, merchants and specialist building-product suppliers able to provide windows and doors for council maintenance or property works. The procurement covered delivery within West Lothian. The council is based at West Lothian Civic Centre in Livingston and acted as both buyer and central purchasing body. The requirement was classified under CPV 44221000, covering windows, doors and related items. The scope centred on supplying the products needed for internal council teams to install, rather than appointing a contractor to undertake the installation itself.

The procurement is complete and resulted in an active award to Sidey Solutions Limited. The contract was signed on 22 June 2026 for £150,000, although no contract duration is stated. It was a limited procedure and a direct award under the Scottish Procurement Alliance Windows and Doors Framework, without prior publication of a competition notice. The procurement used one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are recorded as active. Evaluation was based on price at 70% and quality at 30%. One bid was recorded, with no SME bids and one non-EU foreign bid. The award was made under a rationale that the procurement fell outside the applicable directive’s scope. The buyer was West Lothian Council.

This outcome indicates established demand from West Lothian Council for a dependable supply of windows and doors that can be fitted by the council’s own operatives. A credible future competitor would need a product range suitable for routine property maintenance, reliable sourcing and distribution, and the capacity to fulfil council orders at the scale represented by this contract. Suppliers should also be able to work through the Scottish Procurement Alliance Windows and Doors Framework, or an equivalent route used by the council, because the award was made through that framework rather than an open standalone competition. The single recorded bid and the selection of a large supplier suggest that framework access, supply capacity and delivery reliability may be important competitive factors, alongside demonstrating product quality and offering keen pricing.
