Summary of the contracting process

Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) is inviting tenders for the provision of worksite statutory safety and temporary site signs primarily made of CORREX, using a restricted procedure under the Scottish Government Dynamic Purchasing System. The procurement is active in the tender stage, with FLS acting as the buying organisation. The contract is aimed at addressing the environmental protection industry, covering locations throughout Scotland (UKM). Suppliers must be prepared to deliver signs to designated sites by the specified deadlines. The procurement method is selective, and the process allows for electronic submissions through the Public Contracts Scotland portal. The contract is anticipated to commence on 5th September 2025 for a two-year period, with possible extensions of up to two additional years, culminating in a potential total contract length of four years.

This tender signifies substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in printing and producing safety and site signage. Companies with the capability to handle high-quality outdoor signage production will find this tender appealing, particularly those that can service various locations across Scotland. Supported businesses that meet the minimum quality requirements and can fulfil delivery timelines are especially encouraged to apply. The competitive environment, managed through selective procurement, presents an opportunity for innovative suppliers to showcase their capabilities and potentially secure a long-term partnership with Forestry and Land Scotland.
