Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured works to demolish a 1970s-era concrete-framed multi-storey car park at James Shaw Crescent, Kilmarnock. The requirement covered the complete demolition project, including associated specialist work, rather than the supply of goods or routine services. The relevant construction classification is CPV 45110000, with demolition and wrecking work classifications 45111000 and 45111100. The site is in Kilmarnock and the buying organisation is East Ayrshire Council. The project was structured as a single lot and required a contractor able to manage demolition works and the specialist electrical and asbestos-removal activities needed for the project.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open procedure. The tender closed on 23 February 2024 at 12:00, with evaluation beginning that day. Thompsons of Prudhoe Ltd was selected for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 26 July 2024. The awarded contract value is £497,536.68 excluding any unstated tax treatment, and the contract period was 210 days, equivalent to the stated 30-week construction timescale. Eight electronic bids were received. The evaluation required suitability and economic checks, including a Creditsafe credit score of at least 30, with further scrutiny possible for scores from 30 to 50. Variants were not allowed.

This award indicates demand for medium-scale public-sector demolition contractors able to deliver a complete concrete-frame car-park demolition in an urban location. A credible future supplier would need demonstrable capacity to plan and control the works, coordinate specialist subcontractors and manage site risks associated with demolition and asbestos. Electrical subcontractors, or the main contractor where appropriate, would need current NICEIC Approved Contractor or SELECT Approved Certifier of Construction registration, with appropriately trade-certified employees. Asbestos-removal contractors would need an HSE asbestos-removal licence and suitably certified staff. Financial resilience is important, as the buyer uses Creditsafe for its credit assessment. Required insurance capability included £5 million public and products liability, £10 million employers’ liability and £2 million professional indemnity cover.
