Summary of the contracting process

South Lanarkshire Council is undertaking an open procurement process for the "Supply and Delivery of Glass for Double and Single Glazed Units" for its housing and technical resources. This tender will address the maintenance, repair, and replacement of glazing for the council's extensive housing stock of 26,000 units. The procurement involves various glass types, including Float Glass, Toughened Glass, and Pyrodur Glass, with a contract value estimated at £680,191.29. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 3rd March 2026, at which point bids will be formally opened. The contract term spans three years, with potential for a three-year extension, offering a significant ongoing opportunity for suppliers based in South Lanarkshire, specifically within the region denoted as UKM95.

This tender presents an excellent business opportunity for suppliers in the glass industry, especially those experienced in high-volume order fulfilment, given the requirement for delivery within five working days and emergency fulfilment within 48 hours. It is ideally suited for businesses capable of meeting stringent technical requirements and who can provide evidence of similar contracts managed effectively in the past. Suppliers with robust delivery capabilities and comprehensive insurance coverage will find the tender particularly appealing. Moreover, the bid evaluation emphasises both technical quality and competitive pricing under the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) criteria. This scenario makes it a rewarding prospect for businesses aiming to expand their public sector portfolio while contributing towards community benefits as part of the contractual deliverables.
