Summary of the contracting process

Caledonia Housing Association commissioned construction of social housing at Dubton Farm in Brechin. The requirement is a land-led design-and-build contract: the construction contract formed a condition of the land sale. This is housing construction for the association, delivered in Brechin, Angus. The work is identified as building construction (CPV 45210000).

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Scotia Homes. The association used a limited procedure without publishing a prior competition, explaining that the design-and-build contract was required as a condition of the land sale. The award is active. The contract was signed on 8 July 2026 and is valued at £3,532,512.15. The procurement was arranged as one land-led design-and-build lot. The published rationale states that it fell outside the scope of the relevant procurement directive. No separate evaluation criteria are reported.

This award shows Caledonia Housing Association buying social housing construction through a land-led design-and-build arrangement, with the building contract tied to the sale of land. A credible supplier for a comparable requirement would need to deliver housing construction and take responsibility for design and build, as well as work within a land-sale-led arrangement. The selected supplier is an SME, demonstrating that a business of that scale secured this contract; the recorded outcome does not establish any particular accreditation, specialist qualification or prior experience requirement. For construction firms, housebuilders and design-and-build contractors, the relevant commercial fit is the ability to deliver housing for the association in Brechin under this procurement structure.
