Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority commissioned a multi-discipline design team and combined construction consultancy for refurbishment works at its Arbroath site. The requirement covers estates professional services under Lot 1 of the PROC 21-1088 Estates Professional Services Framework, with the detailed scope set out in the mini-competition documentation. This is a professional services opportunity for organisations providing integrated design and construction consultancy support for public-sector building refurbishment. The work is centred on Arbroath, Scotland, and is being bought by the Scottish Police Authority through the LHC Procurement Group for the Scottish Procurement Alliance framework. The service is classified as construction consultancy services under CPV 71530000. AtkinsRéalis UK Limited was selected to deliver the requirement.

This procurement has been awarded following a mini-competition under the PROC 21-1088 Estates Professional Services Framework, Lot 1. The award was made to AtkinsRéalis UK Limited for £194,156.55 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract is active and was signed on 7 February 2026. The tender period recorded for the competition ran from 7 February 2026 to 6 February 2028. Two bids were reported. The process used a framework call-off rather than an open standalone tender, and the requirement was evaluated through the mini-competition arrangements and scope in the procurement documents. There is one recorded award and one contract, both relating to the Arbroath refurbishment design-team and construction-consultancy requirement.

This award is useful market evidence for multidisciplinary design practices and construction consultancies seeking Scottish public-sector estates work. A credible competitor would need to provide an integrated team able to support refurbishment projects through design and wider construction consultancy services, rather than a single specialist discipline. Relevant businesses are likely to include firms with established public-building, estates and capital-works capability, and the capacity to coordinate several professional inputs for a named refurbishment scheme. The procurement also shows that the Scottish Police Authority uses a formal estates professional services framework and mini-competition route for this type of requirement. Suppliers positioned for future opportunities should therefore understand framework call-offs, assemble a broad design and consultancy offer, and demonstrate dependable delivery for public-sector refurbishment programmes.
