Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council has concluded a procurement process for the 'Appointment of a School Counsellor (Girvan Academy)' under a limited award procedure. This procurement, classified under the services category (CPV 85312320), was completed without prior publication due to its exemption from certain regulatory scopes. The procurement method was specifically designed for regional or local authority general public services and took place in Ayr, within the UKM94 region. The key contract, valued at £40,000, was signed on 1st August 2024, with the award being finalised by 29th August 2024. The primary location for service delivery is Girvan Academy in Ayr.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses in the counselling and educational support sectors, particularly those classified as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
