Summary of the contracting process

Abertay Housing Association is seeking landscape maintenance services for its open spaces and landscaped areas in Dundee and surrounding areas. The work covers routine maintenance of open spaces, including hard and soft landscaping, plus reactive repair work. The requirement is divided into three lots, offering suppliers a choice of service areas; bidders may pursue no more than two. The Association is the buyer and intends to appoint a main contractor for each lot. This is grounds maintenance and landscaping work for areas owned by a housing association, rather than a one-off landscaping project. The service combines regular upkeep with responsive repairs to outdoor spaces across the Association’s properties.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The submission deadline was 4 November 2026 at 12:00, and the bid opening was scheduled for the same time. Contracts were planned to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with a possible one-year extension and a further one-year extension depending on contractor performance. The process has three lots; suppliers may bid for and be awarded up to two. Each lot is evaluated equally on quality and price, weighted 50% each. Bidders must have annual turnover of at least £100,000 in each of the last three financial years, and service delivery is reserved to a particular profession. Electronic bids were accepted in English; variants were not permitted.

This opportunity is suited to established grounds-maintenance and landscaping contractors able to deliver both planned upkeep and responsive repair work across multiple housing-association sites. The buyer requires delivery by a particular profession, so suppliers should check the tender documents for the applicable professional qualification or status before deciding whether they can meet the requirement. The turnover threshold points to a supplier with an established business, while the requirement to provide the names and qualifications of assigned staff favours firms able to identify a suitably qualified delivery team. Bidders can target up to two of the three service areas, allowing some choice in how much work to pursue. TUPE transfer applies to Lots 1 and 2, but not Lot 3. Community benefits form part of the quality submission.
