Summary of the contracting process

Historic Environment Scotland is seeking to procure scaffolding services for various sites within the Edinburgh region. This open procedure tender, identified as HES/C/4308, falls under the works category, specifically targeting the built environment, tourism, heritage, and conservation industries. The tender submission closes on 29th September 2025 at noon, with the award period commencing immediately thereafter. All submissions are to be made electronically via the designated portal. The contractor will be required to provide services for a two-year period, with the possibility of extension for an additional eight months, depending on wider organisational plans. The estimated contract duration might lead to a re-tender process in spring 2028, should extensions be utilised.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for firms specialising in scaffolding and related services to expand their footprint in the public sector, particularly within heritage and conservation-oriented projects. Companies with robust economic standing and a strong track record in providing high-quality, compliant scaffolding solutions are well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The project emphasises community benefits, providing additional avenues for businesses capable of delivering both service excellence and social value. Furthermore, adherence to financial insurances, as specified, will be critical for advancing in the procurement exercise.
