Summary of the contracting process

Renfrewshire Council commissioned road-structure works across Renfrewshire. The work covers strengthening or replacing bridges and retaining walls, scour protection, parapet upgrades, bridge-joint replacement and general bridge maintenance. It also includes traffic management, associated ancillary work and any design work assigned to the contractor. This is civil engineering construction and repair work on transport infrastructure, rather than a supply-only contract. Suppliers need to be able to deliver a range of structural interventions on roads and bridges, with traffic management incorporated into the work. The requirement was procured as one package, bringing these related activities together under a single contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to WI & A Gilbert Ltd. The Council used an open procedure, and seven bids were received, including five from small and medium-sized businesses. The contract was signed on 23 September 2026 and is active. Its stated value is £2,000,000. The contract period is 1,080 days, with an option for the Council to extend once for up to 12 months at its discretion. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026. The requirement was handled as a single lot, and variants were not permitted. Selection criteria were described as set out in the procurement documents; the award evaluation basis is not stated in the available process details.

This award demonstrates demand from Renfrewshire Council for a contractor able to undertake varied road-structure works within one contract, rather than a single isolated repair. A credible competitor would need relevant bridge and retaining-wall construction or maintenance experience, including strengthening and replacement, scour protection, parapets and bridge joints. The scope also calls for traffic management capability and the ability to carry out design work where required, so suppliers need to be able to coordinate engineering and site delivery as well as the structural works. The Council selected a suitably qualified and experienced contractor. Seven suppliers competed, five of them small and medium-sized businesses, showing that the requirement attracted bids from smaller firms as well as other suppliers. This is a substantial, multi-disciplinary civil engineering package for businesses equipped to manage varied interventions across Renfrewshire.
