Summary of the contracting process

North Lanarkshire Council is managing a public procurement process seeking a demolition engineering consultant to assist in the second phase of its demolition programme. Key services include developing a baseline programme, project management of demolition activities, and acting as Principal Designer in compliance with CDM 2015. The programme involves working across various sites in the North Lanarkshire area over an eight-year period. The procurement adopts a selective method, specifically a restricted procedure, under the services category. The process was initially set to accept submissions until 14th January 2026 but was extended to 19th January 2026 following bidders' requests. The latest award stage notes indicate that the procurement status is unsuccessful as of 18th February 2026.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for firms in the demolition and engineering consultancy sectors. It is particularly suited to organisations with expertise in project management, engineering input, and compliance with safety standards such as CDM 2015. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality services, as evidenced by the tender’s award criteria of 70% quality and 30% price, may benefit. The project involves diverse and complex sites, including high-rise blocks and possibly other complex structures like shopping centres and educational facilities, allowing organisations to showcase their capabilities in handling multifaceted projects. North Lanarkshire Council's intention to re-tender after four years also opens potential for continued partnership and extended service provision.
