Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured demolition works at 2–4 Brown’s Road, Newmilns, Ayrshire. The requirement covered demolition of a brick and tin shed, together with minor groundworks and kerbing. This is a small construction and enabling-works package, classified under CPV 45110000 for building demolition and site preparation. The work was for delivery in Newmilns and was bought by East Ayrshire Council. The contract requirement included asbestos-related activity, because an asbestos removal contractor was proposed as part of the delivery team. The selected supplier was J.B. Black (Ayrshire) Ltd, based in Maybole. The procurement has completed and the resulting contract is active.

This was a completed, single-lot open procedure. Bids were due by 16 February 2024 at 12:00, with bid opening at the same time; the award period began on 16 February 2024. The contract was awarded to J.B. Black (Ayrshire) Ltd, and the contract was signed on 12 March 2024. Its value is £14,647.50. The contract period was 30 days, while the stated construction timescale was two weeks. Evaluation required an HSE-issued asbestos removal licence to be held throughout the contract and appropriate certification for all employees. Economic checks included a Creditsafe score of at least 30 out of 100, with possible further scrutiny for scores between 30 and 50. Required insurance was £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability.

This award indicates demand from East Ayrshire Council for compact demolition packages combining structural removal with minor groundworks and kerbing. A credible competitor would need practical demolition capability, experience managing short-duration site works and the ability to coordinate asbestos removal safely where required. The asbestos specialist must hold an HSE-issued asbestos removal licence for the full contract period, and every employee involved must have appropriate certification. Suppliers also need demonstrable financial standing through the council’s specified Creditsafe assessment, rather than an alternative credit report. The required insurance capacity is substantial relative to the physical scale of the works: £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability. Experience delivering similar work efficiently in Ayrshire or comparable local-authority settings would strengthen future credibility.
