This public procurement record has 2 releases in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council has completed the procurement process for the production of Operations & Maintenance (O&M) manuals, a project central to the general public services and education sectors. This contract was initiated through an open procedure aimed at delivering works in Fife, located in the UKM72 region. Having moved past the award stage, the contract was signed on 16 February 2026. Relevant stakeholders included Fife Council as the contracting authority, and F3 Building Surveyors Limited has been awarded the contract as the supplier. The initial tender, with a value of £30,000, had a submission deadline set for 22 January 2026, following which bids were opened at Bankhead Central, Glenrothes.

Offering a significant growth opportunity for businesses involved in the production of detailed documentation, the tender emphasised the creation of O&M manuals complete with Health & Safety Information, Mechanical and Electrical Services Manuals, under a single-supplier framework. SMEs in the construction and documentation sectors, particularly those adept in electronic submissions and interested in framework agreements, stand well-placed to benefit. While prioritising local suppliers, the open procedure saw submissions exclusively from SME bidders, highlighting an inclusivity geared towards local and specialised entities. The project additionally enables extensions for up to 24 months, ensuring sustained collaboration and service continuation.
