Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is to supply Calf Recording Equipment, managed by SRUC (Scottish Rural College), based in Edinburgh, UK. This tender is currently in the award stage, with the contract officially signed on 28th February 2018. The project involves delivering 16 modular systems intended for the SRUC Dairy Research and Innovation Centre located in Crichton Royal Farm, Dumfries, with a projected value of £510,000. The open procurement method allows any qualified supplier to submit a bid, with the tender period having ended on 21st February 2018.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses in the agricultural equipment sector, particularly those specialising in modular systems for livestock management. Companies experienced in providing integrated control systems, software for data management, and related ancillary equipment would be especially well-suited to compete. As the modular construction must be user-friendly for non-specialist operators, suppliers with a proven track record in the agricultural industry are encouraged to consider this tender to expand their market presence.
