Summary of the contracting process

Kingdom Housing Association Limited is acquiring new affordable housing at the Local Centre, Almond Valley, Perth. The homes form part of a wider programme to deliver affordable housing across Perth and Kinross, in partnership with Perth and Kinross Council. The properties are the affordable housing provision within a larger privately developed site, owned by the developer. This is a housing construction and acquisition requirement (CPV 45211300), with delivery in Perth. The procurement concerns the homes themselves rather than the wider development, and is linked to the association’s local affordable housing programme.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Barratt North Scotland, the developer of the site. The contract was signed on 22 September 2026 and is active. Its stated value is £9,048,854. The expected contract period runs from 2026 to 2028. This was a negotiated procedure without a prior competition notice, using a limited procurement method. The association’s stated rationale is that the site belongs to the developer and the affordable homes form part of its wider private development, so the contract could only be awarded to that operator. Price was the stated award criterion. One bid was received, from a supplier that was not an SME. The procurement was arranged as a single lot.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need the capacity to deliver new affordable homes within a larger private residential development, and to work with a housing association and local authority as part of a wider housing programme. The selected supplier’s position as developer and owner of the site was decisive here: the association stated that the affordable homes were part of that privately owned development and could only be provided by that operator. This award therefore shows that site ownership and integration with the wider development can outweigh open competition for this type of housing provision. Price was the stated evaluation basis, so a supplier competing for a comparable requirement would also need a commercially competitive offer, alongside the ability to deliver housing construction at this scale.
