Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Borders Housing Association is buying cyclical painting and associated property-decoration works. The scope covers external decoration of rendered walls, timber and metal doors and windows, rainwater goods, handrails, balustrades and boundary or dividing fences. It also includes internal walls, ceilings, staircases, and woodwork or metalwork in communal stairwells. This is building painting and repainting work, with surface protection included. The works relate to the housing association’s properties; the process data identifies the buyer’s base as Selkirk but does not state specific delivery sites. The requirement is for ongoing cyclical maintenance rather than a single isolated painting task, and includes both external and shared internal areas.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Mitie Property Services (UK) Ltd was selected as the supplier, with an award value of £1,607,110. The award record describes community benefits as a commitment of the contract. Two bids were recorded. The available process information does not provide an award date, contract start or end date, or tender procedure and evaluation criteria, so these cannot be included in describing the outcome or route. The award covers the full stated decoration and associated works scope; no separate lot awards are recorded. The contract is with Scottish Borders Housing Association, rather than the Scottish Government, which also appears among the parties to the process.

For suppliers of planned housing maintenance and building-decoration services, this award demonstrates demand for cyclical painting across external building fabric and communal interiors. A credible competitor would need to deliver a broad range of work: preparing and decorating rendered walls, timber and metal fixtures, rainwater goods, fences, balustrades, staircases and communal areas. The scope implies the ability to coordinate work across multiple property elements and to handle both exterior and interior finishes, including surface protection. Community benefits are an explicit contract commitment, so suppliers should be prepared to incorporate community-benefit delivery into their approach. The selected supplier is a property-services contractor, indicating that the buyer’s requirement is suited to firms able to manage a coordinated maintenance package, not just provide painting labour for a single building.
