Summary of the contracting process

East Lothian Council intends to procure a term maintenance contract for roofing work on its housing stock in East Lothian. The work is expected to cover reactive roof repairs, support for planned maintenance, and specialist roofing services as required. This is a works contract for suppliers able to carry out roofing maintenance and repair across the Council’s housing properties. The planned supplier event is intended to explain the upcoming contract and give businesses an early view of the Council’s requirements and procurement approach.

The process is at the planning stage: the Council has signalled its intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It plans to hold a supplier webinar on 3 November 2026, from 10:30am to 12:00pm, to discuss the forthcoming contract. The Council currently expects to publish a future notice on 5 January 2027. The procurement is described as a term maintenance contract for the Council’s housing stock. No procedure, evaluation basis, contract duration or estimated value is stated here, so suppliers should treat the event as an opportunity to learn about the expected requirements rather than as a tender invitation.

This work is likely to suit roofing contractors with the capacity to respond to repair needs, support planned maintenance and provide specialist roofing services for a council housing portfolio. Firms with experience maintaining and repairing roofs across housing stock may find the planned supplier discussion useful for understanding the buyer’s requirements and approach before the tender is published. The webinar is also intended to provide practical advice on competing for the Council’s upcoming opportunities. Businesses can use the discussion to assess whether the contract fits their service range and prepare for the later procurement stage; the information describes an upcoming opportunity, not a bid that can be submitted at this stage.
