The work covers routine grounds maintenance and repairs across areas owned by the Association in Dundee and surrounding areas.

The requirement is for a main contractor for each contract. Suppliers may bid for up to two lots and may be awarded up to two, so businesses should consider which parts of the Dundee-area work best match their resources and experience. The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The tender deadline was 4 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC; the scheduled bid opening was at the same time. The contract period for each lot runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with a possible extension of one year plus a further year, conditional on contractor performance. Quality and price each account for 50% of the evaluation. Bidders must have annual turnover of at least £100,000 in each of the last three financial years, and execution of the service is reserved to a particular profession. Staff names and qualifications must be provided. Variants are not allowed. The notice also requires a community benefits question in the quality submission and includes a subcontracting clause. This opportunity is suited to established landscape maintenance contractors able to deliver recurring open-space upkeep and respond to repair requirements across multiple sites in and around Dundee. Suppliers need the professional status required to execute the service, and sufficient financial capacity to meet the stated turnover threshold. Bidders must also be ready to identify the staff assigned to the work and provide their qualifications.
