Summary of the contracting process

Stirling Council, a regional authority, has completed a procurement process titled "Advertising on Bus Shelters," with a focus on advertising services within the public transport network. The contract involves using and providing new bus shelters for commercial advertisement, with a main procurement category of services. Originally announced for tender in February 2025, it reached the award stage on 26th May 2026. The procurement location is Stirling, in the region of UKM77. The procurement method involved an award procedure with prior publication of a call for competition, and the evaluation criteria were 70% based on commercial aspects and 30% on quality.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the advertising and public infrastructure sectors, particularly those capable of managing long-term advertising space on bus shelters. Given the substantial 3,600-day contract period, companies with robust operational capabilities and experience in managing transport-related advertising would be particularly well-suited to compete. With Bauer Media Outdoor UK Ltd. securing the contract valued at approximately 1,298,000 GBP, it highlights opportunities for large-scale advertisements across Stirling's transport network. Companies focusing on innovation in outdoor advertising and those able to offer quality and commercial viability are poised to thrive in such tenders.
