Summary of the contracting process

The General Medical Council (GMC) has completed a procurement process titled "GMC Edinburgh Works," focused on construction work within their Edinburgh office at The Tun. This contract encompasses joinery, kitchen, and flooring interventions. The procurement was executed under a limited method owing to its below-threshold nature. Located in the United Kingdom, this initiative relates to the public authority, sub-central government sector, with the award stage finalised as of 17 February 2026. The contract, valued at £36,000 (with a gross amount of £45,000), commenced on 11 February 2026 and is set to conclude by 4 March 2026.

Business growth opportunities from this contract are abundant, particularly for companies specialising in construction services. Large firms like Scotwood Interiors Ltd have been successful in competing for this procurement, suggesting that businesses with capacities in joinery, kitchen installations, and flooring would be well-placed to bid for similar projects. The limited competition method may offer a conducive environment for firms that might struggle in more extensive bidding processes, allowing them to demonstrate their specialised skills and experience in delivering tailored workplace solutions. Businesses providing such services in regional hubs like Edinburgh can leverage this to expand their footprint in public sector contracts.
