Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council bought the manufacture, supply and delivery of replacement uPVC windows and doors for its Menzieshill 6th Development in Dundee. The requirement covered fully reversible, triple-glazed window units for 40 properties, double-glazed stairwell windows in seven blocks, and composite doors for 21 properties. Four house types were included. The supplier had to provide all associated sundry items and extension pieces. Council staff were responsible for removing the existing units and carrying out installation, so the contracted work was the production and delivery of the specified products rather than fitting them. This is a building-products supply contract for manufacturers and distributors able to meet a project-specific window and door schedule.

The procurement is complete and Dundee City Council selected CR Smith Manufacturing Ltd; the contract is active and was signed on 30 September 2026. The contract value is £199,973. The contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. There was one lot, covering all the stated properties and product types. The Council used an open procedure, with bids submitted electronically, and received six bids. Evaluation placed 70% weight on price and 12.5% on project timescales and the project plan. Bidders needed an Equifax financial-strength score of at least 35, or supporting alternative evidence if they lacked a score or considered it unrepresentative. They also had to provide three relevant contract examples from the preceding five years.

This award shows demand from Dundee City Council for a coordinated supply of made-to-specification uPVC window units and composite doors across a multi-property housing development. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would be able to manufacture or source triple-glazed, fully reversible windows, double-glazed stairwell units and composite doors across several house types, and manage delivery against a defined project schedule. The requirement also indicates the importance of providing the complete product package, including sundry items and extension pieces, while coordinating with the Council’s own installation team. Credibility depends on a record of comparable contracts, a workable timescale and project plan, and evidence of financial strength acceptable to the Council. Price was the largest stated evaluation factor.
