Summary of the contracting process

South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture SCIO plans to procure sports equipment and other small retail goods for resale through its leisure facilities in South Lanarkshire. The goods are intended for display and sale to customers at facilities selected by the organisation. The arrangement is proposed to operate on a consignment basis: suppliers provide the goods, which are sold on site, rather than being purchased outright in advance by the leisure organisation.

The process is at the planning stage. South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture SCIO has issued a market-engagement questionnaire to gather information from interested organisations; this is not an invitation to tender. The buyer expects to publish a further notice on 11 January 2027. The stated estimated procurement value is £383,666.05. The planned contract is described as one lot and is covered by the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement.

This arrangement is likely to suit suppliers able to provide a varied range of sports goods and sundry retail items, and to manage the practicalities of supplying and displaying stock across multiple leisure facilities. Suppliers should be prepared for a consignment model in which their return depends on goods sold to customers. The buyer is seeking input from organisations interested in providing this type of resale supply, so businesses with experience in retail stock provision and facility-based sales may find it relevant when preparing for the later procurement.
