Summary of the contracting process

The Highland Council has opened a tender for the "DIHD24007 - Meiklefield Ph2 - New Build Development" project, which entails constructing 34 new builds along with associated civil works. Located in Dingwall, the procurement process falls under the "works" category, with Inverness-based deliveries. This open procedure, part of the ongoing tender stage, initially set a submission deadline of 19th February 2026, which has since been extended to 2nd March 2026. Interested parties can submit their bids electronically through the Public Contracts Scotland portal. Marcus Bramley is the contact point at The Highland Council for any inquiries.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for construction companies, particularly those experienced in new builds and civil works. Given its 480-day contract period and the significance placed on cost (80%) and quality (20%) in evaluations, companies that balance competitive pricing with quality workmanship are likely well-suited. Additionally, with community benefits included, firms with a strong commitment to local engagement and workforce development might find this project particularly rewarding. The requirement for staff names and qualifications further implies that businesses with a seasoned and qualified team will be competitive in bidding for this project.
