Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Tayside Contracts in partnership with Perth & Kinross Council, involved an open procedure for the supply of 1,500 Street Lighting LED lanterns. The procurement was categorised under general public services and took place in the region of Perth & Kinross, with a focus on goods within the street lighting sector. Tayside Contracts, based in Dundee, served as the contracting authority, conducting the process within the frameworks outlined by the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014. The tender was initially announced in April 2025, with a submission deadline on 2nd May 2025, followed by the award stage. Notably, James M Anderson Ltd was awarded the contract, valued at £119,730, and the contract was signed on 18th August 2025. This procurement underscores Tayside Contracts' commitment to sustainable practices and fair work, with compliance ensured through relevant regional regulatory obligations.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs), particularly those experienced in manufacturing or distributing LED lighting solutions. The requirement for 1,500 LED lanterns presents a substantial business opportunity for firms looking to expand within the public sector lighting domain. Businesses with robust supply chains, the ability to meet technical specifications, and possession of relevant insurance and financial stability would be well-suited to compete. Compliance with required certifications and environmental standards, such as ENEC compliance and a Quality Assurance system in accordance with ISO 9001, was crucial. The scope to order additional quantities further enhances potential business growth, encouraging companies within the supply chain to seek opportunities for collaboration and expansion under public procurement legislation.
