Summary of the contracting process

Clyde Gateway procured a feasibility study for the Glasgow Women’s Library, focused on assessing a listed building. The requirement was for professional services to examine the building’s feasibility; the procurement does not set out further study tasks in the available description. The work relates to the library in Glasgow. The project is relevant to architectural practices and built-environment consultants with experience assessing listed buildings and advising on their feasibility. O’Donnell Brown Architects, a Glasgow-based SME, was selected to carry out the work.

The procurement is complete and a contract is active. Clyde Gateway used an open procedure for a single lot. The contract was awarded to O’Donnell Brown Architects and signed on 12 August 2026, at a contract value of £4,890. The tender’s estimated value was £6,000. The planned contract period was 60 days. The submission deadline was 9 June 2026 at 12:00. The notice data does not state a separate award date or describe the evaluation criteria, so the outcome and stated procedure are the available basis for understanding the process. Twenty-two bids were recorded, all classified as SME bids; all were submitted electronically.

This award shows Clyde Gateway bought specialist feasibility advice for a listed building at its Glasgow Women’s Library project. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need architectural or related built-environment expertise, with the ability to assess the feasibility of work involving a listed property. O’Donnell Brown Architects’ selection demonstrates that an SME was able to compete successfully through an open process; the recorded competition included 22 SME bids. This is a focused, short-duration consultancy requirement rather than a large construction package. Practices able to undertake proportionate feasibility work and compete electronically may be well placed when Clyde Gateway next needs comparable advice for this building. The procurement provides evidence of this buyer’s demand for listed-building feasibility services, not evidence of a wider programme of related work.
