Summary of the contracting process

North Ayrshire Council is seeking a qualified contractor for the design and build of a flexible Advanced Industrial Unit in Phase 2 of the i3 Business Park, as part of an initiative backed by the Ayrshire Growth Deal. The procurement process is at the tender stage, following an open procedure, with submissions to be made electronically by 1st July 2026, which also marks the commencement of the award period. The project, valued at approximately £6 million, is under the works category, specifically for the construction sector, and is situated in the region of UKM93, Irvine. Interested parties should comply with the financial and professional criteria set out, ensuring they have requisite insurance and are registered with appropriate trade or professional bodies.

Enterprises with proven expertise in designing and building industrial units, and those able to meet financial and technical qualifications, including a turnover of at least £12 million annually over the past three years, are well-placed to participate. Firms with ambitions to enter the Scottish market, or to enhance their standing in public sector contract execution, will find this to be an attractive prospect, enhanced by the potential for community benefits associated with employment, skills development, and collaboration with SMEs and third-sector organisations.
