The process, tagged with "award" and "contract", was identified as open procedure under the procurement method "Open procedure". The procurement falls under the "General public services" industry category. The tender process started on 13 February 2024, and the contract was awarded and signed on 16 August 2024, with a value of £210,000. The contract covers a 2-year period with an option to extend for up to a further 24 months, and the delivery location is specified as North Ayrshire, region UKM93. The procurement included a framework agreement, estimating a maximum of four compliant contractors.

This tender provides substantial business growth opportunities for companies specialising in metal fencing materials, particularly those with prior experience in serving public sector contracts. SMEs with robust supply chain management, quality assurance policies (such as ISO 9001 compliance), and health and safety certifications (like ISO 45001) are well-suited to compete for such contracts. The awarded suppliers, James Cowie + Co LTD and Reid Wire Ltd, exemplify proficient small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of fulfilling the council's requirements. The tender's focus on a balanced quality-price ratio (20% quality, 80% price) ensures that both cost-effectiveness and high standards are maintained, thereby encouraging competitive bidding from well-qualified providers.
