Summary of the contracting process

Calvay Housing Association is seeking a main contractor to maintain its open spaces and landscaped areas in Barlanark, Glasgow. The work covers routine maintenance of both hard and soft landscaping, together with reactive repair work. This is a landscape maintenance services contract (CPV 77314000) for land owned by the Association. The requirement is for one contractor to deliver the service across the specified areas. The work is local to Barlanark and concerns the Association’s own housing-related grounds, rather than a wider city-wide maintenance service. Suppliers focused on grounds care, landscaping and associated repair services are the most directly relevant.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submissions. The process has reached the tender stage. The submission deadline was 8 December 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with a possible two-year extension in two one-year increments, dependent on contractor performance. Price carries 70% of the evaluation weighting and quality 30%. Bidders must demonstrate annual turnover of at least £150,000 in each of the last three financial years. Execution is reserved to a particular profession. The contract requires community benefits equivalent to 3% of the awarded contract cost. Bids must remain valid for 90 days. The notice identifies a recurring procurement, with a subsequent process anticipated in November 2029.

This opportunity is suited to a landscaping or grounds-maintenance contractor able to organise routine upkeep and respond to repair needs across both hard and soft landscaped areas. TUPE applies, so bidders should be prepared to manage a transfer of staff from the incumbent contractor and use the associated operative and cost information when planning delivery. The buyer requires bidders to name the staff assigned to the work and provide their qualifications. All applicants must commit to paying operatives at least the Scottish Real Living Wage; a statement confirming compliance is required, and failure to provide it means exclusion. Suppliers must also be able to deliver community benefits as part of the contract. These requirements favour firms with relevant operational capacity, workforce planning and experience delivering local landscape maintenance.
