Summary of the contracting process

Highland Council commissioned building repair works at 97–119 Benula Road in Inverness. The work covered arranging temporary access, replacing a beam and repairing the underside of concrete walkways. It is a focused structural and fabric repair requirement on an existing residential site, rather than a new-build project. The work was delivered in Inverness. The council was the buyer, and the procurement was made through the Scottish Procurement Alliance’s PB3 framework. The scope indicates a need for a contractor able to organise safe access and carry out beam replacement and concrete walkway repairs.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Compass Building & Construction Services was selected for the single lot. The contract value is £107,211.61, and the contract was signed on 12 October 2026. The procurement used an open procedure through the Scottish Procurement Alliance PB3 framework. One bid was recorded for the lot, from an SME. The published process information identifies the work and framework route but does not describe the evaluation criteria or provide a contract period.

For contractors considering comparable Highland Council work, this award shows demand for targeted building-fabric repairs delivered through the Scottish Procurement Alliance PB3 framework. A credible supplier would need to manage temporary access and have the capability to replace structural beams and repair the undersides of concrete walkways. Experience planning and carrying out repairs to existing structures would be relevant to this type of requirement. The awarded contract was a focused, mid-sized package rather than a broad construction programme, and an SME was selected. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate suitable repair capability and deliver a contained project through the framework route.
