## Summary

Almond Housing Association has initiated a public procurement contract titled "Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (‘RAAC’) Removal". This contract falls under the Housing and Community Amenities industry category and pertains to the location of Livingston, represented by the UKM78 region. The procurement process leverages an open procedure for the removal of internal RAAC roof/ceiling panels and installation of new plasterboard ceilings, with subsequent addition of pitched roofs. Key dates include the tender period ending on 18 December 2024, with the award period starting immediately thereafter. The contract was signed on 18 March 2025, and is currently in the award stage, signifying that it has been granted to DBM Building Contractors Ltd, with a contract value approximating GBP 1,471,293.51.

This tender provides considerable opportunities for growth for construction firms, particularly those specialising in structural remediation and roofing works. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering high-quality construction and remediation services, especially in housing and community amenities, stand to benefit. The project demands protection of existing structures, strategic removal and replacement of RAAC panels, and precise reinstatement with new plasterboard ceilings, demanding a high level of technical expertise and operational capabilities. Businesses involved in such structural work would be well-suited to compete, providing them with a platform to scale their operations and establish robust case studies for future procurement opportunities.
