Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow City Council invites suppliers to submit tenders for the supply and delivery of bottled and bulk gas, including gases such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and industrial gases, to a variety of Council-operated sites throughout Glasgow. This procurement is conducted using an open procedure via the Public Contracts Scotland - Tender portal, designed to establish a single-supplier framework with a value of £1,150,000. The framework agreement requires the supplier to uplift, remove, and dispose of cylinders in compliance with environmental standards. The procurement stage is currently active, with tender submissions due by 25th March 2026. The council, acting as the contracting authority, aims to ensure continuous supply to cater to scheduled and ad-hoc demands across diverse sites, including schools and leisure centres.

This tender represents a prime opportunity for businesses specialising in gas delivery and environmental compliance to establish a partnership with a major regional authority. Companies with experience in handling and disposing of industrial gas products and who can offer flexible delivery solutions are well-positioned to compete for this framework agreement. With a focus on service delivery, risk mitigation, and sustainability, the procurement process emphasises quality, allowing businesses to demonstrate their methodologies and practices effectively. Furthermore, businesses committed to community benefits may find this tender particularly advantageous, aligning with Glasgow City Council's objective to integrate economic and social clauses into procurement contracts. The framework offers scope for businesses to grow their client base and provenance within the public sector while ensuring stable and potentially lucrative engagement over the contract period.
