## Summary

The procurement process for the project titled "43 No New Housing Units, Milton of Leys, Inverness" has been completed by Highland Council, a regional authority known for its general public services. The project involves the delivery of new housing units in Inverness, situated in the UKM6 region. This contract has reached the award stage as of 21 April 2026, with the housing development actively underway following the signature on 31 March 2026. Utilising a limited procurement method, the procedure avoided a public call for competition due to site ownership considerations. The council was approached by the site owner, paving the way for a negotiated process, focusing on works within the construction industry.

This tender presents notable opportunities for growth within the residential construction sector, particularly for businesses with expertise in infrastructure development. Large-scale developers like Barratt Homes, who have been awarded the contract, are suitable candidates for such opportunities, especially given their capability to deliver complex housing projects efficiently. The nature of this negotiated contract highlights possibilities for businesses that can collaborate directly with landowners or public authorities to bring specialised property developments to fruition. It fosters an environment conducive to business expansion, offering a significant contract valued at £9,080,477, thus encouraging participation from well-established construction firms with a focus on housing works.
