Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Borders Council has completed the procurement process for the supply of Real Time Information Screens. This procurement falls under the goods category and follows an open procedure. The awarded contract, signed on 24th March 2025, involves the purchase of 29 screens to be installed within the Council's jurisdiction in the UKM91 region. This process utilised the City of Edinburgh Council framework for Bus Station CMS and Bustracker RTPI. Scottish Borders Council acted as the buyer with the award notice documented under reference number MAY529463, marking the procurement stage as complete.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the production and supply of real-time information technology systems, particularly those that can integrate with existing transport infrastructure like bus station CMS and bustracker RTPI systems. Innovative technology firms, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), would find this type of contract suitable due to the niche requirement for advanced screen systems capable of delivering timely information. With the procurement method being open and the value of the contract amounting to GBP 290,159.5, it encourages a diverse range of suppliers to participate, stimulating business growth within the tech and public service sectors.
