Summary of the contracting process

Loreburn Housing Association is seeking a landscape architect to carry out a strategic assessment of selected estates in rural and urban settings, including later living developments. The work will produce an exemplar estates guide to support consistent, high-quality estate improvement across the Association’s portfolio. This is a professional landscape architecture services requirement, classified under CPV 71420000. Delivery is centred on Dumfries, with the assessment covering a selected sample of the Association’s estates. The appointed supplier will need to turn findings from different estate types into practical guidance that can inform future improvement work. The requirement is relevant to landscape architecture practices with expertise in estate assessment, design quality and guidance for housing or other community-focused developments.

The procurement reached tender: Loreburn Housing Association invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. It comprises one lot. The tender deadline was 7 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with bid opening at the same time; the award period began then. The contract period is 180 days, and the estimated value is £20,000. Bids must remain valid for 180 days and be submitted in English. Evaluation requires suitability and technical compliance: execution is reserved to the landscape architecture profession, and applicants must demonstrate relevant qualifications, professional membership and affiliation to an appropriate professional body. Staff names and qualifications must be provided. Variants are not allowed, and community benefits form part of the requirement.

This opportunity suits an established landscape architecture practice able to assess housing estates across rural, urban and later living settings and develop clear, reusable improvement guidance. Bidders need professionally qualified personnel, membership of the relevant profession and affiliation to an appropriate professional body. The requirement also calls for the names and qualifications of the staff who will deliver the service, so firms should have a defined project team with demonstrable specialist capability. Strong candidates are likely to combine landscape assessment, estate improvement, strategic reporting and practical guidance suitable for a housing association portfolio. Suppliers should also be prepared to address the community benefits expected under the requirement, as set out in the tender materials.
