South Ayrshire Council has awarded a contract for the "Provision of a Befriending Service for Children and Families." Categorised under general public services within the services industry, this procurement process is located in Ayr, within the UKM94 region. The contract was initiated through a limited procurement method, described as an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, and the rationale given was that the procurement falls outside the scope of application of the relevant regulations.
