Summary of the contracting process

North Ayrshire Council has completed the procurement process for the "SHQS Surveys 2024 - 2027", a project aimed at collecting, validating, and reporting condition information for 2800 domestic properties in North Ayrshire, including the Isle of Arran. This procurement, falling under the General Public Services industry category, was conducted using a limited procurement method without a prior call for competition. The project has now reached the award stage, with JMP Construction and Property Consultants securing the contract. The supplier was selected due to their unique capability to use the APEX Survey Manager system required by North Ayrshire Council. The survey results must be uploaded to the Council’s Innovations APEX Asset Management System. The contract was signed on 1st October 2024 and is valued at GBP 273,900.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for enterprises experienced in property condition surveys and data management using specialised systems like APEX. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in domestic property compliance and asset management systems stand to benefit from such contracts. Given the specific technical requirements and the limited competition for this tender, businesses capable of meeting these criteria are well-suited to compete in similar future procurements. This project underscores the importance of advanced technical skills and niche expertise in securing government contracts.

North Ayrshire Council requires a suitably experienced Service Provider to collect, validate and report upon condition information of 2800 domestic properties in North Ayrshire including the Isle of Arran, for the purpose of improving existing records regarding compliance with the Scottish Housing Quality Standard (SHQS). The completed survey information is required to be uploaded to the Council's e-Management system 'Innovations APEX Asset Management System'

Procurement Information

The supplier will be required to use APEX Survey Manager as both the method for gathering the element condition information and for downloading/uploading the data into/from NAC's database. This is to the agreement of NAC. Apex is a legacy asset management system operated by NAC, the current contract with Apex expires in 2028 and is expected to be renewed thereafter. Early supplier engagement undertaken by CPU in August 2024 contacted over 40 suppliers both in the open market and across various national frameworks, however no suppliers were able to confirm they had the required experience of utilising the APEX system. This thorough market engagement has determined that the only supplier that can deliver these services to NAC's requirements is the incumbent provider.
