This public procurement record has 1 release in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council awarded a contract to Net Zero Nation Limited for the delivery of a Net Zero Accelerator Programme. The contract process was completed in the Award stage, with activities focussed within Ayr, a region identified as UKM94. The procurement process utilised a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to its classification as being outside the scope of regulatory application. Key dates include the contract signing on 11th March 2025, and the award publication date of 27th March 2025. This procurement aligns with the services industry category and aims to provide general public services.

The award of this contract provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in sustainability and net zero consultancy services. SMEs, in particular, would find this sector lucrative, given the specific expertise required in delivering accelerator programmes aimed at achieving net zero targets. The limited procurement method indicates a direct and specific need, suggesting that businesses with a niche in offering specialist environmental services or those with previous experience in similar public sector projects are well-suited to compete in such tenders. Involvement in this contract could enhance business credentials and open doors for further public sector collaboration.
