Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Supply, delivery and Installation of Edgebander Machine" by City Building (Glasgow) LLP has been completed. Operating as a central purchasing body, City Building is based in Glasgow and is a subsidiary of two public bodies, focusing on maintenance, construction, and manufacturing. This contract, awarded to AWMS Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise located in Airdrie, involves the procurement of essential goods within the sector. The procurement method utilised was limited due to extreme urgency and specific requirements for consistency and safety, particularly for employees with disabilities. The contract, valued at £133,500, was signed on 15th January 2026 and encompasses supply, installation, commissioning, and training on this specialised machinery, located in Glasgow.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities for companies operating in the manufacturing equipment sector, particularly those capable of supplying specialised machinery with unique features like those benefiting visually impaired users. Businesses focusing on the integration of health and safety within manufacturing processes will find themselves well-suited to pursue similar tenders. Furthermore, the demand for familiarity and continuity of existing machinery systems highlights opportunities for companies involved in the supply of compatible machinery solutions. SME suppliers, such as AWMS Ltd, showcased their capability to fulfil contracts within compressed timelines, setting a precedent for similar business ventures in future procurements.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Supply, delivery and Installation of Edgebander Machine

Notice Description

Edgeband machine - supply, delivery, installation, commissioning and training.

Lot Information

Lot 1

City Building Glasgow requires an edgeband machine for our RSBI factory. This will include supply, delivery, installation, commissioning and training on the new machine.

Procurement Information

Purchase under business SO's. There is pressing need for this machine. The open procurement procedure was considered but the timelines for this route were too long in terms of the required delivery date. The proposed machine provides unique features that helps the visually impaired. These machines are the same as RSBi's current machinery therefore the familiarity for disabled employees is essential. The H&S aspects of these machines is critical in terms of our disabled workforce therefore having the same machines would be of considerable benefit and help ensure the safety of employees. RSBi employees are currently trained and know how to operate these types of machines. Alternative machines would need considerable retraining but would also add considerable confusion to the employees as they would need to try and understand two different types of machinery and operating instructions changing between both on a regular basis. RSBi believe this would cause significant difficulty to our employees leading to potential mistakes and potential H&S concerns.
