Summary of the contracting process

Highland Council commissioned quantity surveying services for Phase 3 of a housing development comprising 28 new homes at Teandallon, Evanton. The work supports delivery and commercial management of the housing project, with the services categorised as engineering and technical consultancy. The procurement was arranged through the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy Framework, under its project and commercial management lot. The project is in the Highland Council area, at Evanton. The requirement is for a professional quantity surveying practice able to support a local authority housing scheme, rather than for construction works or housing supply.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to KLM Partnership. The contract is active and was signed on 14 October 2026, at an awarded value of £73,377.79. The contract period is not stated in the published process information. The requirement was competed using an open procedure through the Scotland Excel framework; it was presented as one lot for project and commercial management consultancy. The award was made following evaluation of the framework procurement, and the available bid statistics record one bid, from an SME. No award date is separately recorded, so the contract signature date is the reported outcome date. The contract is for quantity surveying duties relating to the 28-home development.

This award demonstrates Highland Council’s demand for quantity surveying support on a specific affordable-scale housing development, procured through the Scotland Excel engineering and technical consultancy framework. Practices with quantity surveying and project commercial management capability for residential construction are the closest fit for a similar requirement. Credible suppliers would need to show they can support a 28-home scheme and provide the professional capacity to manage the commercial aspects of the project. The selected firm was an SME, and the process attracted one recorded bid, indicating that a specialist consultancy can serve this type of requirement. For future work of this kind, framework access and relevant housing-project experience are commercially pertinent; the award does not establish additional requirements for accreditations or specialist qualifications.
