Home Scotland has appointed Glasgow-based City Building to the £40 million framework agreement to build new houses and flats for current and future tenants over the next four years.
The framework agreement means that City Building is one of only a handful of preferred contractors able to bid for work from Home Scotland – part of Home Group which is one of the UK’s largest providers of social housing.

City Building – Glasgow’s City Council’s arm’s-length construction company – has been appointed to the framework due to its experience of new build and refurbishment projects, with Home Scotland particularly impressed by the committed approach to quality, social ethos and innovation outlined in the City Building bid.
John Foley, City Building managing director, said: "We are delighted to be a part of this huge project which will contribute significantly towards the provision of new homes in Scotland.
"Our knowledge and experience of constructing new build housing and our extensive in-house management, technical and trades resources have helped us to deliver some market-leading sustainable developments across Scotland so far.
"We will continue to work hard to build upon this success for clients such as Home Scotland."
City Building is one of eight companies that have been successful in a three-stage bid process to be appointed to the contract.
