Summary of the contracting process

Perth & Kinross Council has concluded the awarding stage of their procurement process for consultancy services related to the Garry Viaduct, with the contract signed on 8 August 2025. The project, titled "PKC12299 - B8019/01 Garry Viaduct, Bearing Replacement & Parapet Upgrade Consultancy Services," falls under the structural engineering consultancy category and is intended to provide necessary inspections, assessments, and design supervision for critical repairs. The procurement adopted an open procedure method and is covered by the GPA. MHB Consultants, a large-scale supplier based in Glasgow, has been awarded the active contract valued at £738,665.23. The location relevant to this project is in the UKM77 region, indicating work may concentrate around Perth, Scotland.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in civil and structural engineering consultancy services. Specifically, firms with expertise in bridge construction and site supervision will find this contract appealing. It suits enterprises with the capability to deliver quality design for bearing replacement and parapet upgrades in compliance with contemporary standards. Despite being awarded to MHB Consultants, similar procurement opportunities from the Council may arise, providing value for experienced consultancies wishing to expand their portfolio. Additionally, the tender process demonstrated a preference for quality and price, with them being weighted at 40% and 60%, respectively, indicating competitive pricing remains crucial for future bids. Businesses eyeing this sector should ensure strong insurance coverages and proven examples of prior consultancy projects related to viaducts for increased success in competing.
