OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Borders Council has undertaken a tender process for the construction of the Great Tapestry of Scotland museum at Tweedbank, UK, aimed at creating a prominent visitor attraction of architectural significance. The procurement method used was selective, following a restricted procedure, although the contract has been marked as complete with an award notice indicating that the project status is unsuccessful and discontinued. Relevant dates include the tender initiation on 30th April 2018, with efforts now directed towards a new location for the centre in Galashiels, as decided by local authorities and the Scottish Government.

This procurement opportunity could significantly foster business growth within the construction sector, particularly for companies specialising in museum design, building works, and public architecture. Businesses that have experience in creating high-quality cultural venues will find this tender especially relevant, even though the initial contract has been cancelled; it indicates the ongoing need for such projects in the region. Suppliers who can adapt to new requirements as project plans evolve may also benefit from future opportunities arising from this initiative.
