Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council has successfully completed a contracting process for the "Provision of Security Services for the International Ayr Show - Festival of Flight 2025". As part of this award, SecuriGroup has been selected as the supplier for delivering these services. This procurement falls under the services category within the industry classification code 79952000. The procurement method employed was a limited one, specifically utilising a Direct Award from the Scotland Excel Security Services Framework Agreement, bypassing the need for a prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 24 June 2025, and the designed location for service delivery is Ayr, in the UKM94 region.

This tender provides a growth opportunity for businesses specialising in security services, particularly those familiar with providing large-scale event security. While this particular award used a direct procurement method, businesses interested in such contracts should consider aligning themselves with pre-established frameworks like Scotland Excel for potential direct appointments in future competitive opportunities. As the project revolves around a significant public event, experienced companies capable of operating in dynamic environments and ensuring public safety and security would have been highly suitable contenders had a competitive tender process been employed.
