Interested suppliers need to submit electronic bids by 12:00 PM on 22nd August 2025, with the award decision following shortly at 12:30 PM. As a central purchasing body located in Edinburgh, the Cairn Housing Association is keen on leveraging this project to enhance housing amenities within its remit.
