Bilbohall Housing Phase 1

Moray Council are looking for a contractor to build 28 units and shared infrastructure in the Bilbohall area of Elgin.

These 28 units form the first phase of delivery of the Bilbohall Masterplan available at http://www.moray.gov.uk/moray_standard/page_116016.html, and have been granted planning permission under planning reference 24/00705/APP available at https://publicaccess.moray.gov.uk/eplanning/caseDetails.do?keyVal=SCSM6SBGH9H00&caseType=Application.

A Section 42 application has been submitted which seeks to amend the phasing of the masterplan area, and simplify and/or purify as many suspensive planning conditions as possible available at https://publicaccess.moray.gov.uk/eplanning/caseDetails.do?keyVal=SUHNELBGGHJ00&caseType=Application

The units have been designed to RIBA Stage 4. Building Warrant and Road Construction Consent proposals have been prepared.

The tender documents will include a NBS. There will be contractor designed elements. Opportunities for cost savings will be considered.

The site has been affected by electricity supply constraints but these have been resolved through negotiation between Moray Council and SSEN.

Current future plans for Bilbohall are unclear, however there may be approx. 106 units total, to be built in phases.

Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
