The procurement falls within the construction works industry category, involving extension and internal alterations to a school building. The project is situated in Aberdeen, under the postal code AB16 5GB, and has reached the 'Award' stage as of 22nd April 2026. The procurement method utilised was an open procedure, which involved a tender process culminating in a contract signed on 5th November 2025. The overall contract value amounts to £6,404,093.05 GBP, finalized with Morrison Construction, a large-scale enterprise operating locally.

This tender presents notable growth opportunities for businesses in the construction industry, particularly those with capabilities in managing large-scale infrastructure projects.
