The tender is currently in the active stage, with submissions due by 9:00 AM on 4th May 2021. The contract is categorised under services, specifically focusing on housing and community amenities. The successful candidate will commence work on 1st June 2021 and is expected to complete the study by 31st October 2021. Interested parties can submit their proposals electronically through the Public Contracts Scotland website. This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses that specialise in research and analysis, particularly those with experience in housing studies and community engagement. Companies that can effectively assess housing needs and demonstrate an understanding of rural demographic challenges would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging with local communities and stakeholders will be essential, making this a valuable project for firms that prioritise collaborative methodologies in their approach. ## Notice Suppliers are invited to submit detailed proposals for carrying out a Housing Need and Demand Study in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The population of the Outer Hebrides is fragile and like many rural areas in Scotland has been experiencing long term decline. This presents a risk to our business as we continue to increase the supply of housing through our development programme. In addition the Comhairle through their Local Housing Strategy wish to see the majority (55%+) of new social housing built outwith the main population centre of Stornoway and its surrounding market area. The HHP Board wish to establish the demand and need for housing and for social housing in particular through this study. There is a particular requirement to identify the extent of demand for social housing outwith the Stornoway Housing Market Area (HMA) and to what extent there is demand for other housing options. The Board wish to use this study to inform the development of our next business plan later this year. A key aspect of this study will be engagement with our various communities to ascertain their aspirations for housing. This is not restricted to physical communities. In addition the views of local agencies, employers, land owners and community trusts will be very important inputs to this work. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR411713 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Apr 2021 | | Submission deadline | 4 May 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jun 2021 - 31 Oct 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HEBRIDEAN HOUSING PARTNERSHIP LTD | | Locality | STORNOWAY | | Post town | Outer Hebrides | | Postcode | HS1 2QP | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Na h-Eileanan Siar | | Electoral ward | Steòrnabhagh a Tuath | | Westminster constituency | Na h-Eileanan an Iar | | Delivery location | TLM64 Na h-Eileanan Siar | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 70 - Real estate services ### Codes - 70333000 - Housing services ## Release History - 9 Apr 2021 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR411713 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=APR411713&idx=1 9th April 2021 - Invitation to Tender Housing Needs and Demand Assessment - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR411713 Housing Needs and Demand Assessment - Suppliers are invited to submit detailed proposals for carrying out a Housing Need and Demand Study in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. ## Notice URLs - http://www.hebrideanhousing.co.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000650269 - https://www.hebrideanhousing.co.uk/ - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/ - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=650269 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/sitehelp/help_guides.aspx ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
