Summary of the contracting process

The Cairn Housing Association has initiated a public tender for the redecoration of both internal and external areas of 315 social housing properties located in Thurso, Caithness. The procurement, which falls under the category of housing and community amenities (COFOG), is at the tender stage with the identifier CHG10/25-01. This project spans over three years, with work on 75 units planned for the 2025/26 period, 137 units in 2026/27, and 103 units in 2027/28. The open procedure procurement method allows for electronic submissions until 7th November 2025, with contracts set to be awarded starting from the same day. Potential contractors should note that the evaluation will be based on a 70% focus on the lowest cost and 30% on quality, emphasizing the importance of both value and standards in the submission.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in redecoration and refurbishment, particularly those experienced in large-scale housing projects. Businesses that can offer competitive pricing combined with high-quality workmanship will be well-suited to compete, as the evaluation criteria emphasise cost-efficiency and quality. Organisations with strong capabilities in supply chain logistics across Scotland and adherence to electronic submission processes will find this opportunity favourable. Additionally, contractors familiar with the regulatory environment of public housing projects in the UKM region, specifically Caithness, will have an advantage due to their understanding of local compliance and operational conditions.
