Summary of the contracting process

North Lanarkshire Council procured the contractor design and construction of new-build social housing at Bank Street, Coatbridge. The requirement is a works contract covering both the design and construction of the housing development, rather than a standalone design appointment or a separate construction package. It falls within construction work (CPV 45000000) and is intended to deliver social housing for the council. The delivery location is Bank Street in Coatbridge, within North Lanarkshire. The appointed contractor is expected to take responsibility for integrating design and construction activities for the development, making this relevant to firms with experience of delivering complete low-rise housing projects for public-sector or affordable-housing clients.

The procurement has reached the award stage. North Lanarkshire Council made a direct award to a single supplier without competition through the Scottish Procurement Alliance New Build Housing Construction H2 Framework, Workstream 1, Lot 3 for low-rise housing developments of 10–30 units. Cruden Partnerships Limited was awarded the contract at £4,498,247. The associated contract is recorded as active. One bid was recorded. The stated procurement method was direct award, with the framework route and single-supplier approach determining how the contract was placed. The award description identifies the requirement as a design-and-build social housing development at Bank Street, Coatbridge. No separate lot-by-lot awards are identified.

This opportunity is useful market evidence for contractors able to deliver complete low-rise social housing developments, including design coordination, construction delivery and the interfaces between the two. A credible competitor for a future requirement from North Lanarkshire Council would need experience of new-build housing rather than only commercial construction or isolated trade packages, together with the capacity to manage a council-scale development. The procurement also shows that the buyer uses the Scottish Procurement Alliance New Build Housing Construction H2 Framework, specifically the low-rise housing workstream for developments of 10–30 units. Firms seeking comparable work should therefore be positioned for public-sector housing delivery and able to compete through, or secure access to, the relevant framework route.
