Summary of the contracting process

The City of Edinburgh Council procured pre-construction services for a residential-led development on the former Liberton Hospital site in Edinburgh. The initial appointment covers completing the design to RIBA Stage 4 under a Stage One Pre-Development Agreement, establishing the basis for possible later construction and development services. The work is classified as architectural, engineering and surveying services (CPV 71250000), with the wider requirement also classified as residential property development services (CPV 70111000). The procurement relates to one lot under the Council’s New Build Housing Framework Agreement. The delivery location is Edinburgh, and the Council is the buying organisation. The arrangement is intended to support a two-stage development, with any Stage Two appointment considered separately.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used an open procedure, but the appointment was made by direct award through ranking on Lot 1.3 of the Council’s New Build Housing Framework Agreement. CCG (Scotland) Ltd was selected for the single lot, with one bid recorded. The award date was 4 September 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract value is £2,420,980 (including the published currency, GBP). The completed appointment is Stage One Pre-Development only. Any Stage Two appointment would require internal approvals, agreement with the contractor and successful completion of pre-development; enabling works could instead be issued separately if required. The evaluation basis was framework ranking rather than a new competition.

This award indicates demand from Edinburgh Council for suppliers able to lead residential development pre-construction on a former hospital site and take a scheme through design to RIBA Stage 4. A credible competitor would need capability across pre-development services, design coordination and the preparation of a project basis for later construction and development works. Experience of delivering residential-led schemes for a public-sector client, particularly through a housing framework or similar structured procurement route, would be relevant. The requirement also shows that supply-chain management is important: contracts must include prompt payment of subcontractors within 30 days, a subcontractor contact point, active monitoring of payment performance, and evidence or reports for the Council. These expectations favour an established contractor with demonstrable financial and reporting controls.
