The Framework will provide a flexible, scalable and resilient route to market for electrical, control, automation and Operational Technology (OT) requirements across Scottish Water's water and wastewater assets, supporting capital delivery, asset renewal and operational requirements.<br/><br/>The Framework will be divided into three Lots, with multiple suppliers appointed to each Lot: Lot 1 – Integrated MCC, ICA and Systems Integration; Lot 2 – Systems Integration and Automation Services; and Lot 3 – ICA Maintenance, Minor Works and Support.

Scottish Water gives no guarantee of the volume or value of work to be called off under the Framework or any Lot. The estimated value stated in the Contract Notice is the maximum anticipated value over the full Framework term and is indicative only.<br/><br/>The Framework will be based on NEC4 terms. Call-off contracts may be placed under the NEC4 Professional Service Short Contract, the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Short Contract or Scottish Water Purchase Order Conditions, as appropriate to the requirement and Lot being engaged.<br/><br/>Suppliers must maintain all relevant certifications, standards and regulatory compliance throughout the Framework term. MCC assemblies must comply with the current edition of the BS EN IEC 61439 series, including Parts 1 and 2. As a designated Operator of Essential Services, Scottish Water will require suppliers to support its obligations under the Network and Information Systems (NIS) Regulations, including secure-by-design engineering, OT cyber security controls, vulnerability management, personnel assurance and cyber assurance activities. Suppliers must be able to work safely within live operational environments forming part of Critical National Infrastructure, and bidders will be assessed on their capability to undertake the relevant CDM duty holder role(s) for each Lot.<br/><br/>Scottish Water is seeking suppliers who will work collaboratively as long-term delivery partners, including early engagement in project development, design and buildability reviews, accurate lead time and pipeline information, and support for standardisation, innovation, whole-life value and carbon reduction. Performance will be managed through key performance indicators, regular reporting and continuous improvement.<br/><br/>It is estimated the Framework Agreement will start in April 2027 and run for an initial term of 6 years. Scottish Water may extend it by up to 3 further periods of 2 years each. The maximum duration, including all extensions, is 12 years, ending March 2039. Scottish Water may use each extension at its discretion, depending on supplier performance, continued value for money and business needs.
Link Group · Scotland
Link Group intends to enter into a Framework Agreement with a limited number of Building Contractors to provide construction services for a four year period with a possible one year extension. This may also include the provision of design and construction services. Link works in partnership with a number of subsidiary companies who will also be entitled to purchase works & services from the Framework Agreement. The subsidiaries of Link Group Ltd currently include, Link Living, C~urb 6 Ltd (C~urb), Horizon Housing Association Ltd, Larkfield Housing Association and West Highland Housing Association. Although it is possible that other organisations may join the Group, becoming subsidiary companies, during the term of the Framework Agreement, and may also wish to "call off" from the Framework. Link also works in partnership with several external organisations, refer to Section 1.1 of the Contract Notice for further detail, who will also be entitled to purchase services from the Framework Agreement. In addition, it is also intended that any Registered Social Landlord registered and operating in Scotland will be entitled to purchase works & services from the framework, subject to Link's prior agreement. There is no guarantee of any work. It is however, more than likely that individual commissions will be "called off" either by direct selection or by mini tendering, within the terms of the Framework Agreement, to identify the most economically advantageous tender. The Framework Agreement will mainly cover the provision of construction works & services for new build housing, however individual projects may also include rehabilitation of existing properties, office and commercial properties, extensions, community facilities and adaptations, and planned maintenance projects. The projects will range in size, tenure and type from mainstream housing to a variety of special needs projects. The tenure type will cover all affordable tenures, private rented and market sale. Applicants should have experience of projects within the social housing sector for projects between 5 and 500 units including flats, houses and retirement living projects with a mix of tenures. The location of projects will vary but in the main will be located in the Central Belt of Scotland, Argyll & Bute and Highland, however individual projects may be located in any part of Scotland. The total number of units in each of the geographical areas may vary and specific numbers cannot be guaranteed in any area or in total. Although individual projects cannot be guaranteed, Link will expect the successful contractors to deliver a high quality and value for money service.

The University Estates and Campus Services Department will have several construction and projects to advance over the next five years which will require the selective input of external consultants, including M&E (Mechanical and Electrical) Design Services. The scope, standards, and expectations for the provision of M&E design works and associated services are to support the delivery of capital, refurbishment, and maintenance projects within Estates for the University of Dundee. The appointed M&E design consultant shall provide comprehensive design and specification information suitable for issue as part of tender documents, and support the project throughout the RIBA work stages 0 – 7 (project initiation – to completion) while ensuring construction projects deliver value for money, comply with statutory and procurement requirements, and support the University’s strategic estates objectives.
National Records of Scotland · Scotland
National Records of Scotland (NRS) operates across an estate comprising five buildings, four of which are located in Edinburgh (three being Category ‘A’ listed) and one in Dumfries. The historic and cultural significance of these assets requires the engagement of suppliers with demonstrable expertise in conservation led estates services and operational, specialist archival storage facilities and a clear understanding of the statutory, technical and professional requirements associated with working within protected and sensitive environments. Such services are critical to ensuring that NRS can continue to fulfil its role as custodian of Scotland’s records, while maintaining safe, compliant and functional accommodation for collections, staff and, where applicable, members of the public. NRS shares many common estate management challenges and requirements with other Scottish Government sponsored organisations, including Historic Environment Scotland and the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh. Each partner organisation is responsible for the stewardship of nationally important, and in many cases listed or protected, operationally specialist buildings, landscapes and collections. These estates require a consistent, high quality and conservation focused approach to professional services, delivered by suppliers with proven experience of working within complex heritage environments. NRS has invited partner organisations to establish a joint Framework Agreement for professional estates services. The framework aims to secure access to a suitably skilled and diverse supply base with specialist technical and conservation expertise, reduce duplication of procurement activity, and provide a compliant, efficient and flexible mechanism through which participating organisations can call off services as required. This collaborative approach is intended to support value for money, improve service quality and resilience, and ensure that all organisations are able to discharge their custodial responsibilities effectively and sustainably over the life of the framework. Services that may be called off under the Framework include (but are not limited to): Multi disciplinary technical and design services (including architectural and engineering); Conservation led consultancy for listed and historic buildings; Support to in house estates and facilities teams, including specialist advice and surveys; Project and construction management; Health and safety, fire safety, asbestos surveys and management and water safety (including legionella) services; Planned maintenance planning, inspections, condition surveys and compliance support.
