Summary of the contracting process

East Dunbartonshire Council is the buying organisation for the contract titled "EDC/2025/4305 – A807 ATC – Ground Investigations – S2 & S3 Detailed Design," which focuses on environmental protection and general public services within the works industry category. The project involves intrusive site investigation survey works along a proposed new active travel route alongside the A807 in East Dunbartonshire. The procurement process utilised an open procedure and has progressed to the award stage, with the contract being signed on 18th June 2026. The tender had a closing date of 26th May 2026 and a contract period from 29th June to 7th December 2026. This project is significant for the East Dunbartonshire region, particularly in the areas such as Kirkintilloch, and represents a strategic initiative under the procurement framework.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in ecological and geotechnical services, as the project requires skills in ground investigations, geophysics survey, and various specialist logistical and laboratory capacities. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have a viable opportunity to engage, as demonstrated by Soiltechnics Ltd's success, an SME that secured the contract. There is a strong focus on delivering community benefits, although these benefits are not scored in the evaluation process. Thus, businesses equipped with the necessary technical qualifications and financial standing meeting the council’s criteria, such as prior experience within similar domains and a capacity for handling contracts of around 175,438 GBP, are well-suited to pursue opportunities in such tenders. The electronic submission process simplifies participation for businesses, making it accessible and efficient for future engagements.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The works comprises the carrying out and completion of the intrusive site ground investigation (GI) survey works to assess the ground (and groundwater) underlying the proposed new active travel route alongside the A807 in East Dunbartonshire, including analysis and reporting. The purpose of the ground investigation is to provide information on the ground, groundwater, and geo-environmental conditions and to assess risks that may be encountered- during construction works. The proposed investigation objectives include: - To confirm the anticipated ground conditions across the site including thickness of made ground, superficial materials and depth to bedrock (if shallow). - To confirm water infiltration rate of soils to inform drainage design. - To obtain California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values for pathway subgrade design. - To obtain samples for geotechnical, geo-environmental and chemical testing. - Soil samples retrieved from the exploratory holes to enable characterisation of the ground conditions beneath the site and inform risk assessment and re-use/disposal options. - Groundwater/ ground gas installations within the boreholes to facilitate ground water/gas sampling, and monitoring to establish the groundwater regime beneath the site. - Groundwater samples retrieved from exploratory holes and submitted for chemical analysis to enable characterisation of controlled waters and assess groundwater quality for dewatering purposes (where required). - Undertake Geophysics surveys to investigate potential historical coal workings underlying the route at two locations to identify if any voids are present.. Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in regulation 8 and 9 of the Procurement (Scotland) Regulations 2016.
