Summary of the contracting process

The River Dee Trust, located in Aboyne, launched a contracting process for environmental protection works, with the project titled "River Restoration & Wetland Enhancement Works Upstream of Garlogie Dam, Aberdeenshire". The procurement falls under the works category, focusing on installing large wood structures and groundworks to enhance the wetland for river and floodplain restoration. With an open procedure procurement method, the process was actively pursued earlier in 2025. The key submission deadline was 25 June 2025, with the contract awarded on 10 July 2025. The project location is Garlogie, Aberdeenshire, classified under CPV code 45247100. River Dee Trust, a charitable trust holding the role as the central purchasing body, spearheaded this initiative.

CR Contracting North LTD, an SME based in Aboyne, was awarded the contract valued at £59,234. Businesses focused on innovative environmental solutions and capable of handling open procedure procurements could find this an attractive project for increasing their portfolio in sustainable development.
