Summary of the contracting process

Renfrewshire Council is procuring specialist works to survey and treat timber, rot, woodworm, infestations and dampness in its housing stock, covering both tenanted and void properties. The scope includes timber preservation, rot eradication, damp proofing, mould remediation, disinfection, sanitisation, anti-fungal and antimicrobial treatment, air sterilisation, mechanical ventilation, Positive Input Ventilation systems, extract ventilation, ducting and servicing. Associated remedial works may include joinery, plumbing, electrical, gas and general building repairs. The work will be delivered across the Renfrewshire local authority area, including occupied homes and properties housing vulnerable residents. The contractor must investigate defects, recommend treatments, complete repairs and make good affected areas, with surveys and reporting forming part of the service.

The tender stage has been reached: Renfrewshire Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The procurement is a single lot. The tender deadline and bid opening were set for 11 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The initial contract period is 720 days, with two optional 12-month extensions, giving a possible total period of four years. The anticipated annual value is £2,750,000, stated as indicative and not guaranteed; work will be ordered as required. Evaluation is based on methodology and approach, weighted 45%, and price, weighted 40%. Variants are not allowed. Bids must remain valid until 8 February 2027. The requirement includes Fair Work First and community benefit conditions, electronic ordering and electronic payment.

This opportunity suits contractors specialising in property preservation, damp control, timber treatment and remedial building works, particularly businesses able to manage varied defects from investigation through treatment and reinstatement. A suitably qualified survey function is essential: surveys must be undertaken by a Certified Surveyor in Remedial Treatments, with detailed reports, recommendations and costings based on the National Schedule of Rates. Tenderers must be members of the Property Care Association or an equivalent body and provide evidence of membership. Strong candidates will also have in-house or managed capability across joinery, plumbing, electrical, gas, ventilation and general building work. The requirement calls for reliable response, record-keeping, performance reporting and safe delivery in occupied homes, including properties with vulnerable residents, alongside capacity for community benefits and subcontracting obligations.
