Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council, a regional authority located in Ayr, conducted a procurement process for the provision of car park management services for the International Ayr Show – Festival of Flight 2025. The process entered the award stage with the contract being signed on 26th August 2025. The procurement was conducted using a non-competitive, limited method, which did not require prior publication of a call for competition, as it fell outside the usual regulatory scope. The contract, valued at £46,631, was awarded under the services category and covered the UKM94 region.

This contracting opportunity highlights the potential for businesses specialising in event management and logistical services to secure future contracts with local authorities, particularly in the area of transport and site management. Large-scale organisations capable of managing complex logistics and customer service operations would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar tenders. Additionally, the lack of SME bids suggests potential avenues for smaller businesses to explore and offer competitive services in future procurement rounds. The awarded contract to Tracsis Events Ltd indicates a current preference for well-established suppliers in the field.
