Summary of the contracting process

Linthouse Housing Association commissioned the construction of 36 new residential units on the former Davislea Care Home site in Glasgow. The works include all associated building activities, mechanical and electrical installations, external works and Contractor’s Design Portions, delivered in accordance with the contract documentation. This is a residential new-build project classified under CPV 45211000, covering construction work for multi-dwelling buildings. The requirement is for a principal construction contractor able to coordinate the complete development, including design responsibilities assigned to the contractor, building services, site-wide external works and delivery of new housing. The site is in the Davislea area of Glasgow, for the housing association’s residential development programme.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure as a call-off from the Scotland Excel New Build Residential Framework. A.S. HOMES (SCOTLAND) LIMITED was selected for the single lot. The award was made on 29 July 2026 and the contract is active. The contract value is £8,478,097. Seven bids were received, all from SMEs, and all seven were submitted electronically. The procurement used an electronic auction and was covered by the GPA. The recorded outcome concerns one supplier and one residential construction requirement; no separate lot or supplier values apply.

This outcome demonstrates demand from a Scottish housing association for a substantial, integrated residential new-build scheme rather than a narrow trade package. A credible future competitor would need principal-contractor capability for multi-unit housing, with sufficient capacity to manage construction, mechanical and electrical services, external works and contractor-led design responsibilities within one delivery team. Experience coordinating the full building process and complying with detailed contract documentation would be important. The route to market is also significant: suppliers would need access to, or a route into, the Scotland Excel New Build Residential Framework and the ability to compete through electronic tendering and potentially an electronic auction. The participation shows that SME contractors can compete for this scale of work.
