Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured building works at 136 Merrick Drive, Bellsbank, near Dalmellington. The project involved constructing a rear extension to provide a bedroom and a wet room with a hoist, together with minor alterations inside the existing building. Internal works included redecoration and forming openings in the external walls to create doorways into the new extension. This is a small, specialist construction project combining general building work with accessibility-related adaptation and mechanical and electrical installations. The contract is for works rather than goods or standalone consultancy. The named delivery location is 136 Merrick Drive, Bellsbank, KA6 7TN, and the council is the buying organisation.

The procurement is complete and the single lot was awarded to Candid Construction Scotland Ltd; the resulting contract is active. East Ayrshire Council used an open procedure with electronic submission. The tender deadline and bid opening were both 23 May 2025 at 12:00, and the award period began on 23 May 2025. The contract was signed on 25 July 2025 for £111,926.98 including the stated currency of GBP. The planned construction period was 12 working weeks, while the lot records a contract duration of 120 days. Two electronic bids were received. Evaluation covered suitability and economic standing, including required trade registrations, Creditsafe scoring and specified insurance levels. Variants were not allowed.

This award indicates demand from East Ayrshire Council for contractors able to deliver occupied-building alterations and extensions that combine general construction with care, accessibility and building-services requirements. A credible future supplier would need experience coordinating an extension containing a bedroom, wet room and hoist, alongside internal alterations, redecoration and new door openings. Electrical delivery requires NICEIC Approved Contractor or SELECT Approved Certifier registration, with appropriately trade-certified employees. Mechanical subcontractors need B&ES Association or CIPHE membership, and commercial gas work requires current Capita Gas Safe registration. Financial credibility is important: the council uses Creditsafe and requires a minimum score of 30. Required insurance capacity includes £5 million public and products liability, £10 million employers’ liability and £2 million professional indemnity for six years after practical completion.
