Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority has completed a tender for the "Uplift and Transportation of Deceased Persons (Argyll)" service, which falls under the public order and safety industry. The invitation was made through a limited procurement method due to a lack of suitable bids following an open tender. The contract was awarded on 29th June 2021, with a contract value of £120,000. The procurement process is focused on delivering services specifically in the Argyll region, with detailed arrangements handled from their headquarters at 1 Pacific Quay, Glasgow.

This opportunity is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the funeral services or logistics sectors, particularly those already familiar with handling sensitive transport cases. The awarding of the contract to Donald MacDonald indicates a preference for local, experienced suppliers. Businesses that excel in quality and affordability, and are capable of providing compassionate service in a compliant manner, may find future opportunities as this process indicates a need for ongoing support in this sector.
