Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council has recently concluded the procurement process for the "Corporate & Housing Policy" contract in the General Public Services industry category. This project, located in Ayr, was undertaken through a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as it falls outside the scope of application of the regulations. The contract was awarded on 10th February 2025 to Arneil Johnston, an SME based in Motherwell, with a contract value of £18,000. The procurement stage is complete.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in corporate and housing policy services, especially SMEs looking to expand their footprint in the public service sector. Companies with expertise in delivering comprehensive policy-related support and services to local authorities would find such contracts particularly beneficial for business growth. The use of a limited procurement method suggests that the buying organisation values a niche, highly specialised supplier, making it an ideal opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises with relevant expertise to build a strong partnership with local authorities like South Ayrshire Council.
