Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "QUEEN ELIZABETH BRIDGE REPAIRS 2025" project was initiated by Aberdeen City Council, a regional local authority located in Aberdeen, Scotland. The contract involved bridge repair works such as the replacement of expansion joints, resurfacing of the road's wearing course, and upgrading manholes to a higher load category. The procurement followed the 'Open procedure' method, under the category of 'works', with a contract value of approximately £266,075. The contract phase has reached the 'Award' stage with completion noted, following a planned initiation on 10th January 2025 and tender period concluding on 28th February 2025. All submissions were made electronically, and WI & A Gilbert Ltd of Dalry, UKM, was awarded the contract, which was signed on the 7th of April 2025.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses operating within civil engineering and infrastructure maintenance sectors, particularly those specialising in bridge repair works. Companies proficient in delivering high-quality construction services with relevant experience in similar public sector projects could find this tender lucrative for expansion and portfolio enhancement. The involvement of small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) was encouraged, evidenced by the successful bid by WI & A Gilbert Ltd, an SME that likely leveraged its competitive edge in project cost management. Additionally, the required expertise in working with high-standard load categories and surface materials positions this opportunity well for companies with specialised technical capabilities.
