Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow Life (Culture & Sport Glasgow) has completed the procurement process titled "Play Services for Children and Young People with Additional Support Needs and their Families". This tender falls under the industry category of "Social work and related services" (CPV code 85300000) and is located in the City of Glasgow, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is in the award phase, with the contract signed on 30th January 2025, amounting to £570,000 GBP. The procurement was conducted through a limited method, following the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, without prior publication of a call for competition due to its eligibility criteria.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for providers of health and social work services, particularly those specialising in support for children and young people with additional needs. The successful bidder, The Yard Adventure Centre, based in Edinburgh, demonstrates the suitability for similar organisations with expertise in delivering tailored play services. The procurement process favoured an approach that allows smaller entities, including SMEs, to compete effectively without the necessity of a competitive call for offers, thus encouraging participation from specialised service providers within the relevant sector.
