This procurement, classified under the CPV code 90711500 for environmental services, is situated in Holytown, North Lanarkshire (Region UKM). Originally announced in early June 2026, the procurement stage has been updated as of late June 2026, extending the submission deadline to 10th July 2026. Operating under an open procedure, the process involves electronic submission of bids via the Public Contracts Scotland portal.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental and radiological assessments and monitoring. Companies with expertise in meeting high-quality standards (with quality assurance weighted at 70% in bid assessment) and competitive pricing (30%) will find this framework particularly advantageous. The framework agreement allows for a maximum of five participants, enhancing collaboration and potential growth for firms involved.
