## Summary

Aberdeenshire Council is seeking to develop a new affordable housing project, titled "NEW AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT AT DEVERON ROAD, HUNTLY," which involves the construction of 37 new social housing units in Huntly, Aberdeenshire. This procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract having been signed on 28 September 2021. The project was initiated through a limited procurement method due to the scarcity of suitable land for social housing in the area, making this opportunity unique. The total value of the contract is £5,771,113.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction businesses, particularly those specialising in residential development and social housing projects. Given the limited supply options in high-demand areas, businesses that can effectively deliver quality residential units are well-suited to engage. Companies with experience in land acquisition and community-focused projects will find this opportunity particularly favourable, as Aberdeenshire Council aims to meet local housing needs through this initiative.

## Notice

Land and construction associated with 37 new social housing units

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Purchase and development of land to create 37 new build residential units in an area of high social housing demand with very limited supply options

### Procurement Information

Aberdeenshire Council has identified only 7 areas with the necessary requirements to be used for new build social housing - 6 of these are currently unsuitable / unavailable. Therefore this is the only opportunity for the Council to provide much needed social housing in an area with high demand but no realistic alternative sources. Thus because the supplier in this case has exclusive rights to the only potential area for social housing development, as per clause 33.1.bii where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement, an award is being made without a prior publication
