Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by South Ayrshire Council, focused on the provision of a Community Engagement Officer for the International Ayr Show – Festival of Flight 2025. The process falls under the services category and was carried out as an award procedure without a prior call for competition due to its exclusion from regulation scope. The procurement was limited, highlighting its specific nature. The contract was completed and signed on 14th May 2025, with the procurement decision finalised in the subsequent month. The contract location is primarily Ayr, within the region of UKM94, and the procurement category includes general public services, education, and construction works.

This tender offers businesses specialising in community engagement, event planning, and public service provision an opportunity to contribute to a high-profile event, thus enhancing their portfolio and reputation. It was notably awarded to "This is EventoS," an SME based in Glasgow, indicating that similar small and medium enterprises focusing on regional cultural events may be well-suited to compete in future tenders of this nature. With a contract value of £48,000, this tender not only offers financial growth but also potential long-term collaboration with local authorities for businesses that can demonstrate innovative and effective stakeholder engagement strategies.
