Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured demolition works for vacant domestic housing at 26–32, 34–40, 37–43 and 45–51 Campbell Street, Newmilns. The requirement covers demolition of the existing housing stock, associated land drainage and creation of green space. This is a construction and site-clearance project, classified under CPV 45110000 for building demolition and wrecking work. The contracting authority is East Ayrshire Council, with the work taking place in Newmilns. The successful contractor is responsible for delivering the physical demolition and ground-related works rather than ongoing housing services or routine maintenance. The project concerns one defined package of work covering the Campbell Street properties and their immediate site.

The procurement is complete and was run as an open procedure. Six electronic bids were received, and George Beattie & Sons Ltd was selected for the single lot. The award process began on 2 February 2024, and the contract was signed on 19 February 2024. The active contract is valued at £125,523.79 including the stated currency of GBP. The works were described as taking 14 calendar weeks, while the contract period is recorded as 120 days. Bids had to remain valid for 90 days. The successful contractor had to use an asbestos-removal contractor holding an HSE Asbestos Removal Licence, with appropriately certified employees. Financial checks used a Creditsafe score threshold of 30, with specified insurance requirements.

This award indicates demand from East Ayrshire Council for contractors able to combine controlled demolition, site drainage and preparation of land for future green-space use. A credible competitor would need practical experience of demolishing vacant domestic housing, managing works across multiple adjoining property groups and completing associated groundworks within a tightly defined construction programme. Asbestos capability is central: proposed removal specialists must hold an HSE Asbestos Removal Licence throughout the work, and site employees need appropriate certification. Financial resilience will also matter, with the council relying on Creditsafe business checks. Suitable firms should be able to support substantial public and products liability, employers’ liability and professional indemnity insurance, and deliver the work through electronic procurement and contract administration.
