Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow City Council is preparing for a procurement process under the title "Fixed and Mobile Weighbridge Services Framework," scheduled to be issued on 15th October 2025. This framework falls within the services category and is classified under weighbridge services, aiming to address needs across the UKM82 region. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with the full tender expected to be initiated in the coming days. The framework is structured into three planned lots including the hire of weighbridge vehicles and operators, repair and maintenance services, and the supply and installation of weighbridges. This procurement process is underpinned by the legal framework 2014/24/EU and aims to engage businesses through a transparent and structured tendering process.

This procurement offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses involved in weighbridge services, particularly those specialising in vehicle hire, maintenance, and installation services. Companies equipped to offer reliable logistics solutions or expertise in industrial machinery management will find promising potential in the outlined lots. The framework's division into specific lots allows businesses to target their bids in areas aligning with their strengths and expertise, making this an attractive opportunity for regional enterprises looking to secure service contracts with a prominent local authority. Glasgow City Council's commitment to engaging through an organised process further ensures inclusive competition and procedural clarity.
