Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured demolition and associated building works at 5 Orchard Street, Kilmarnock. The requirement covered demolition of a fire-damaged, mid-terrace three-storey residential property, together with installation of rainscreen cladding to the exposed gable walls. It also included timber-rot remedial works and reinstatement to the neighbouring three-storey flatted properties at 3 and 7 Orchard Street. This is a construction works requirement involving demolition, structural and remedial building work, external cladding and property reinstatement. The contracting authority is East Ayrshire Council, with delivery in Kilmarnock. The procurement was divided into one lot and the works were planned around a 22-week construction timescale.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open procedure. The submission deadline and bid opening were 16 May 2023 at 12 noon, and the award stage began on that date. Caskie Limited was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 19 February 2024 and is active, with a stated duration of 180 days. Its value is £593,504.51. Bids had to be submitted electronically in English and remain valid for 90 days; variants were not allowed. Selection requirements included an HSE asbestos-removal licence for the contractor used on the project, appropriate certification for all employees, a minimum Creditsafe credit score of 30, and specified insurance cover. Required insurance levels were £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability.

This award indicates demand from East Ayrshire Council for contractors able to manage sensitive demolition and reinstatement projects in occupied or adjoining residential settings. A credible future supplier would need practical experience in demolishing fire-damaged three-storey housing, making safe and securing adjacent structures, installing rainscreen cladding, and completing timber-rot repairs and associated reinstatement. Asbestos capability is central: the proposed removal contractor must hold an HSE asbestos-removal licence throughout the works, and the workforce must have appropriate certification. Suppliers would also need sufficient financial standing to pass the Council’s Creditsafe assessment, robust project and site management, and capacity to provide substantial public, products and employers’ liability insurance. The requirement is well suited to an established demolition or building contractor with specialist subcontractor control and experience coordinating multi-trade remedial works.
