Summary of the contracting process

LHC, acting for the Scottish Procurement Alliance, established a framework for new-build housing construction across Scotland. The work covers construction works associated with new housing projects, under CPV 45000000, and can be used by Scottish contracting authorities including local authorities, registered social landlords, health bodies, education establishments, emergency services and registered charities. The framework is intended to support a wide range of public-sector housing requirements and may be used by eligible authorities beyond those involved in its development. It includes one framework lot covering the stated geographical area. Community benefits form part of the requirement, including employment and training opportunities, workforce development, equality and diversity initiatives, supply-chain development and opportunities for SMEs, third-sector organisations and supported businesses.

This procurement has been awarded through a framework arrangement, with 20 appointed suppliers covering the new-build housing construction lot. The contract was signed on 11 July 2022 and is active. Its stated value is £500,000,000. The framework term is 1,800 days, and a modification extends the arrangement by 1,440 days so authorities can continue accessing it while the replacement H3 framework is completed and mobilised. The modification does not change the scope, geographical coverage, lot structure, appointed suppliers, pricing mechanism or terms and conditions. No new projects will be initiated under H2 once H3 is live. The appointed suppliers are A S Homes (Scotland), Bancon Construction, Campion Homes, Chap Construction, Clark Contracts, Compass Building and Construction Services, Galliford Try, JR Construction, Marshall Construction, McTaggart Construction, Ogilvie Construction, Advance Construction, Ashleigh, CCG, Cruden Building, Dem-Master Demolition, Lovell Partnerships, Robertson Construction Group, Compass Building and Construction Services Limited, and Connect Modular.

The award demonstrates substantial and continuing Scottish public-sector demand for new-build housing construction delivered through a central framework. Businesses considering future work for this buyer or its participating authorities would need credible capability in new housing construction and the capacity to deliver projects across Scotland. The appointed supplier group includes both large contractors and SMEs, alongside a modular specialist and a demolition contractor, indicating scope for different business models and delivery capabilities within the framework. Strong supply-chain management would be important, including the ability to create subcontracting opportunities for SMEs, third-sector organisations and supported businesses. Contractors should also be prepared to support community-benefit commitments such as employment, vocational training, workforce upskilling, equality and diversity initiatives, community organisation capacity-building and educational support.
