## Summary

Thenue Housing Association Limited commissioned the design and build of an affordable housing development at Ruchazie Place, Glasgow. The project covers approximately 12 homes. It is a land-led development: SIM Building Group Ltd owned the site and offered to transfer it to the association for the housing project, conditional on being appointed as the design-and-build contractor. The work is housing construction, covering both design and delivery of the development. The site is in Ruchazie Place, Glasgow.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to SIM Building Group Ltd. The contract is active and was signed on 18 August 2026, with a contract value of £3,000,000. Thenue Housing Association used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition. The stated basis was the supplier’s ownership and control of the development site needed for the project; transfer of the site was conditional on its appointment as contractor. The process concerned one lot for the affordable housing development. The procurement data does not state an award date or contract duration.

For suppliers considering comparable work for Thenue Housing Association, this award shows demand for an integrated design-and-build delivery model for small-scale affordable housing developments. Credibility depends on being able to deliver housing design and construction as a combined service, and, where a project is land-led, securing access to a suitable development site may be commercially decisive. SIM Building Group’s site ownership and conditional offer to transfer the land formed the stated basis for its selection without prior competition. Suppliers should therefore be prepared to demonstrate relevant housing development delivery capability and a viable site proposition if the same requirement returns to market. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that this project was delivered by a smaller supplier.
