Main Contractor Services Framework

Dundee City Council · Local authority

In brief

Dundee City Council has announced plans to buy construction work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

The notice does not state a value.

It is split into 3 lots, so a supplier can bid for part of the work.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 5 bids per contract for this buyer (from 6 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work.

What the notice says

Dundee City Council intends to establish a multi-lot framework agreement for main contractor services to deliver a range of construction and refurbishment works across the Council estate. The framework will support both housing and non-housing projects. This will complement any national frameworks currently under development.
