Procurement Information

The price for all three lots combined is lower than the thresholds set by the Directive, the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014. However Bield Housing Care's own internal Public Procurement Policy threshold was breached. The association took this action as they are required under recent Scottish Government legislation to upgrade the standard of their fire safety alarms within residential housing by February 2021. As their housing is predominantly older persons housing with specialised centrally controlled systems into which the new alarms must connect the only practical solution was to engage with their already appointed framework of contractors.

However Bield Housing Care's own internal Public Procurement Policy threshold was breached. The association took this action as they are required under recent Scottish Government legislation to upgrade the standard of their fire safety alarms within residential housing by February 2021. As their housing is predominantly older persons housing with specialised centrally controlled systems into which the new alarms must connect the only practical solution was to engage with their already appointed framework of contractors.",
