OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contracting process involves Hillcrest, a central purchasing body based in Dundee, for the delivery of a "Drainage Framework Agreement" encompassing drainage cleaning and maintenance services. The industry category is "Housing and community amenities," with services provided across multiple locations including Dundee, Angus, Fife, Perthshire, Edinburgh, and Aberdeen/Shire. The process, governed by an open procedure, moved from a tender stage with a submission deadline of 27th October 2025, to an award stage involving multiple suppliers on 20th January 2026. The contract was signed and became active from 17th December 2025, with the procurement method ensuring a competitive tendering environment.

This tender provides substantial avenues for business growth, particularly for companies specialising in drainage maintenance, unblocking, and emergency repair services. The contract demands high-quality service delivery, balanced against pricing considerations, making it suitable for SMEs and larger enterprises capable of rapid response and 24-hour service capabilities. Businesses that can offer comprehensive drainage solutions, including technological capabilities like CCTV surveying and jetting, are well-positioned to compete effectively. Given the geographical spread of the service requirements and the framework agreement structure, multiple opportunities exist for suppliers to engage and expand their operational footprint in Scotland's critical housing and amenities sectors.
