Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Scotland Excel, a central purchasing body, which is seeking to establish a framework for the supply, delivery, installation, and maintenance of water coolers and associated consumables. This tender is categorised under "goods" and is primarily focused on the water cooler industry. The tender period ends on 23rd May 2022, and the anticipated duration of the framework is 26 months, with the possibility of extending for an additional year. The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing various suppliers to engage in the tender process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply and maintenance of water coolers, bottled water, and related consumables. Companies that provide installation services, sanitisation, and maintenance of water equipment would be particularly well-suited to compete in this framework. Furthermore, the inclusion of community benefit criteria suggests that suppliers who can contribute to local engagement and targeted recruitment initiatives may have a competitive advantage in securing contracts under this framework.
