This initiative is geared towards enhancing specifications and regulatory compliance. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 15th April 2026. The engagement seeks to develop the WD3 framework across Scotland, particularly targeting the UKM region. The procurement process includes multiple lots, such as PVC-U, timber, and aluminium-clad timber windows and doors, aiming to gather market input on technical and performance requirements. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction and building materials sectors, particularly those specialising in the design, manufacture, and installation of windows and doors. Companies that offer innovative solutions, such as high-performance and heritage-compliant products, will find this procurement appealing. Furthermore, businesses capable of meeting the criteria for competency and accreditation standards are well-suited to compete. Engaging in this tender allows companies to potentially expand their market presence and foster growth by aligning with public sector demands. The proposed framework supports direct installation services and partnerships with approved supply chain members, thereby offering flexibility in service delivery and installation approaches. ## Notice Windows & Doors (WD3) is proposed to carry forward the existing Windows and Doors (WD2) product concept, with enhanced specifications, regulatory requirements and competency criteria. The proposed framework will retain the following lots: Lot 1: PVC-U windows and doors Lot 2: Timber windows and doors Lot 3: Aluminium-clad timber windows and doors This Prior Information Notice (PIN) relates to pre-market engagement being undertaken in accordance with the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and associated Scottish procurement legislation to inform the development of WD3 across Scotland. The engagement will seek market input on the proposed scope and structure of the framework, including the lotting arrangements, technical and performance requirements, competency and accreditation standards, compliance with current and emerging regulatory requirements, and appropriate delivery models.
