Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council procured works to repair, restore and conserve the existing boundary wall at the cemetery off Loudoun Street, Mauchline. The requirement covered construction work to the cemetery boundary wall, classified under CPV 45215400, which relates to cemetery works. Mauchline is the delivery location. This is a local-authority project commissioned by East Ayrshire Council, with the work focused on preserving and repairing an existing public cemetery structure rather than constructing a new facility. The successful contractor was JML Contracts Ltd, based in Auchterarder. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and concerned one defined repair and conservation project.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure. Ten electronic bids were received, and JML Contracts Ltd was selected for the single lot. The award period began on 30 May 2025, the submission deadline was 30 May 2025 at 12:00, and the contract was signed on 25 August 2025. The contract value is £59,421.60 including the stated GBP currency. The planned construction period was 14 working weeks, represented in the lot terms as 120 days. Bids had to be submitted in English and remain valid for 90 days; variants were not allowed. Evaluation included financial standing, requiring a Creditsafe credit score of at least 30 out of 100, with further financial information potentially requested for scores between 30 and 50. Required insurance was £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability.

This award demonstrates demand from East Ayrshire Council for specialist building-conservation and masonry contractors able to repair and restore existing cemetery boundary walls. A credible future competitor would need practical experience in repair, restoration and conservation of traditional or historic walling, together with the workforce and site-management capacity to deliver a defined construction project over several months. Financial resilience is important: the council checks Creditsafe business credit scores and may scrutinise suppliers with scores between 30 and 50. Suppliers also need to hold, or be able to obtain before starting, £5 million public and products liability insurance and £10 million employers’ liability insurance. The opportunity attracted ten electronic bids, so experience, robust financial standing and compliant electronic tendering would be important when competing for similar council works.
