Delivering safe, secure and sustainable homes and buildings through public sector procurement.
SPA delivers a simple core service. We bring buyers and suppliers together to build, refurbish and maintain social housing and public property more efficiently and cost effectively, and to benefit the local community. Created for local authorities, social landlords and other public sector bodies, our frameworks are procured in accordance with The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and developed to ensure nationwide coverage.
As a not-for-profit organisation, we return any surplus to our associate partners to improve social value outcomes in accordance with our primary goal 'improving lives and places through quality procurement solutions' and actively contribute to community benefit initiatives.
We are proud to announce that LHCPG has achieved Gold Standard verification via the Constructing Excellence Constructing the Gold Standard Verification Scheme.
Frameworks are agreements that set out the specification, scope, quality, price and other requirements of building contracts. Suppliers compete through a competitive procurement procures to be appointed on to a framework. Publicly funded bodies access the suppliers that have successfully been awarded to the framework through their chosen ‘call off’ process in line with the framework terms.
As a not-for-profit organisation, any surplus generated during the financial year is re-distributed back to eligible partners. We work in partnership with Lintel Trust who manage our Community Benefit Fund and support our Committee Partners in their delivery of community projects through the fund.
