This project falls under the General Public Services industry category and aims to construct 56 new social housing units in Aberdeenshire. The procurement was completed without prior publication of a call for competition due to the specific nature of the planning obligation under Section 75 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997. The signed contract, valued at £9,000,000, was finalised on 6th September 2022, following the award notice dated 16th December 2024. The procurement process is at the award stage, and the location for the development is Strabathie Village in the UKM50 region. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in land development, construction, and affordable housing projects. Given the scale and scope of the project, companies that specialise in building residential units and possess experience in social housing developments would be well-suited to participate in similar future contracts. SMEs like Kirkwood Homes Ltd, which is an established supplier in the region, would particularly benefit from collaborations with local authorities such as Aberdeenshire Council, fostering business growth and contributing to the local economy. This procurement method demonstrates the potential for streamlined project awards to meet specific development needs efficiently. ## Notice Land and construction associated with 56 new social housing units ### Lot Information Lot 1 Purchase and development of land to create 56 new build residential units in an area of social housing demand with very limited supply options ### Procurement Information The Contractor has offered to provide the Authority with 56 units for social housing in satisfaction of a planning obligation contained within an agreement with the Authority under Section 75 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997.
