Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Enterprise is procuring professional planning and strategic advisory services to deliver the Grangemouth Strategic Spatial Framework study in Glasgow and the wider Grangemouth area. The study is intended to be a practical, infrastructure-led and investment-focused tool for decisions about land, infrastructure, sequencing and investment readiness. It is not intended to produce a fixed masterplan or a statutory zoning document. The requirement covers strategic spatial planning, infrastructure planning, economic and investment analysis, and evidence-based decision support. The main classification is CPV 71410000, covering urban planning services. This is a single requirement for one supplier, with delivery focused on Grangemouth. The work is commissioned by Scottish Enterprise to support future development and investment decisions in the area.

The process reached tender: Scottish Enterprise invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission in English. Bids were due by 8 September 2026 at 11:00 UTC, with opening scheduled for 12:00 UTC the same day; the evaluation period began at 12:00 UTC. The contract is expected to start around 26 October 2026 and run for 180 days, or six months. Its estimated value is between £146,000 and £208,000 excluding VAT, with the published upper value of £208,000. The award basis includes price weighted at 30, together with quality requirements. Prompt payment for proposed subcontractors is assessed pass or fail. Variants are not allowed and bids must remain valid for 90 days.

This opportunity suits consultancies and multidisciplinary teams experienced in strategic spatial planning, infrastructure-led development and investment-readiness work. Strong candidates will be able to turn evidence into practical advice on land use, infrastructure requirements, delivery sequencing and investment decisions, rather than preparing only a conventional masterplan or zoning document. The requirement calls for named staff and their qualifications, so bidders should have an identifiable team with relevant professional expertise. Economic and technical selection criteria are assessed through the Scottish Procurement Document process. Bidders must complete and return the Climate Change Plan template because this is identified as a relevant climate-change contract. Consortia, joint ventures and groups may bid, with the lead organisation and all members jointly liable; subcontractors and relied-on entities require separate self-declarations.
