Summary of the contracting process

Aberdeen City Council is initiating a public procurement process for the "Housing Capital Projects 2026-30 - Internal works to Houses", focusing on design and build aspects for residential interiors. The industry category is works, specifically housing and community amenities, with the framework covering various internal renovations including kitchens, bathrooms, electrical installations, and more within Aberdeen City, UKM50. The process utilises an open procurement method and is currently in the tender stage. Key deadlines include submission of SPDs and an upcoming ITT issue post a shortlist completion. The tender period ends on 10 September 2025, with awards starting immediately thereafter, aiming to appoint up to six bidders for the framework valued at approximately £30 million GBP over two years, with potential extensions. Interested parties must ensure electronic submissions by the closing time.

This procurement offers substantial growth opportunities for construction and renovation businesses, particularly those skilled in residential refurbishments. Companies experienced with framework agreements and demonstrating strong performance through quality and price metrics are well-suited for this tender. Small-to-medium sized enterprises (SMEs) that can meet key community benefits and performance indicators set by the council stand to gain significant work turnover, estimated between £3-5 million per year. Participation might also amplify reputational standing due to alignment with public service renovation projects, ensuring enhanced business visibility and potential for future public sector engagements.

Notice Title

Housing Capital Projects 2026-30 - Internal works to Houses

Notice Description

Multiple Supplier Framework to deliver the design and build aspects of the Internal Works to Houses and flatted properties Framework . This involves work to renew and upgrade elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, electrical installations, joinery, partitions, floors coverings, decoration, and all associated making good. This framework is to have a duration of two years, with the potential for this to be extended by two further periods of one year, during which period a number of call-offs may be initiated. Interested parties are invited to submit completed SPDs that will allow Aberdeen City Council to select bidders to invite to the next stage. These SPD Instructions provide full details of the selection criteria applicable at this stage. Only those bidders who are short-listed as a result of the SPD evaluation process described in these instructions will be issued with an Invitation to Tender (ITT). Aberdeen City Council intends to issue an ITT up to a maximum of SIX bidders. Bidders should note that the estimated value below consists of the provisional budget allocated within the capital plan for all contractors. The actual value per contractor will be expected to be a much smaller proportion following distribution of work amongst an anticipated 3no framework contractors, work carried out by direct in-house resources, contingency allowances, non-access to properties, efficiency savings, and subject to regular reviews and re-allocations of priorities by the Council. The non-binding target is that each framework contractor would receive approximately GBP3-5Million of work turnover per year. The framework contractors will also be required to perform to the council's key performance indicator targets, and community benefits expectations (described elsewhere).

This involves work to renew and upgrade elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, electrical installations, joinery, partitions, floors coverings, decoration, and all associated making good. This framework is to have a duration of two years, with the potential for this to be extended by two further periods of one year, during which period a number of call-offs may be initiated. Interested parties are invited to submit completed SPDs that will allow Aberdeen City Council to select bidders to invite to the next stage. These SPD Instructions provide full details of the selection criteria applicable at this stage. Only those bidders who are short-listed as a result of the SPD evaluation process described in these instructions will be issued with an Invitation to Tender (ITT). Aberdeen City Council intends to issue an ITT up to a maximum of SIX bidders. Bidders should note that the estimated value below consists of the provisional budget allocated within the capital plan for all contractors. The actual value per contractor will be expected to be a much smaller proportion following distribution of work amongst an anticipated 3no framework contractors, work carried out by direct in-house resources, contingency allowances, non-access to properties, efficiency savings, and subject to regular reviews and re-allocations of priorities by the Council. The non-binding target is that each framework contractor would receive approximately GBP3-5Million of work turnover per year. The framework contractors will also be required to perform to the council's key performance indicator targets, and community benefits expectations (described elsewhere).",
