Summary of the contracting process

On 24th June 2025, Scottish Borders Council, a regional authority situated in Newtown St Boswells, concluded a closed procurement process valued at £90,000 GBP for the provision of project management services, specifically linked to a workplace mobility project. The procurement process did not involve a prior publication call for competition due to technical reasons, necessitating the retention of existing knowledge developed during the project phase. The contract was awarded to Anturas Consulting Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Edinburgh. Classified under the industry category 72224000 for services, this procurement falls within the general public services sector in the UK, with the status of the project marked as complete. The process aligns with GPA stipulations, confirming its compliance with international procurement agreements.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for service-oriented companies capable of delivering specialised project management solutions. Firms with technical expertise that can ensure continuity in ongoing projects would have a competitive edge in such procurements. Small to medium enterprises, such as Anturas Consulting Ltd, have proven to be well-suited to capitalise on these opportunities, highlighting the potential for growth in serving local authority projects that demand niche services amidst limited competition. Businesses looking to expand their public sector contracts portfolio would benefit from closely monitoring similar procurement processes to strategically position themselves in forthcoming opportunities.
