Summary of the contracting process

The Dunbritton Housing Association, in collaboration with West Highland Housing Association and Argyll Community Housing Association, has initiated an open tender process for the "Joint Development Consultant Services Framework" covering 2026 to 2028, with potential two 12-month extensions until 2030. The project primarily revolves around development services aimed at enhancing housing and community amenities. The procurement falls under the 'services' category, with the electronic submission deadline set for 3rd August 2026. This framework targets several regions across the UK, particularly focusing on areas in Scotland. As of 3rd July 2026, the tender stage is active, with the aim to appoint Development Service Consultants who can provide local-level project management and engage effectively with the community to support these housing projects.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the development consultancy field, particularly those with expertise in housing and community-led initiatives. Small to medium enterprises that have experience in working with housing associations and can bring local knowledge and community engagement skills will find this opportunity advantageous. The framework allows businesses to compete in an open procedure and potentially secure a role as a Development Agent, providing a platform for business growth through significant exposure across Scotland. The framework supports the procurement of services rather than new build contractors, ensuring businesses specialising in consultancy have the chance to expand their market presence within the public sector. The project's community benefits mandate and requirement for professional qualifications further underline the importance of adding value to the local community through expert consultancy services.
