PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award
Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council procured external lighting upgrade works at Walker Road Depot, 87–97 Walker Road, Ayr. The requirement covered replacement floodlighting around the Waste Management Shed and Grounds Maintenance Shed, additional lighting on the Main Office building, and additional lighting on the external elevation of the Wash Bay. It also included replacing lighting column heads across the site and installing additional complete lighting columns. This is electrical installation work, including electrical wiring and fitting. The work required an experienced electrical contractor and concerned improvements to lighting across operational depot buildings, external areas and access or working spaces. The council is the buying organisation and the delivery location is Ayr, South Ayrshire.

The procurement has been awarded following a Quick Quote process. Fortress Security Alarms Ltd was selected as the supplier, with an award value of £59,216.20 including the stated currency of GBP. The associated contract is recorded as active. Four bids were received. The award covers the complete external lighting upgrade requirement at Walker Road Depot, including floodlighting replacement, additional building and wash-bay lighting, replacement column heads and new lighting columns. The published outcome records the successful supplier and award value, but does not set out a contract start or end date, an evaluation weighting, lot structure, or additional participation conditions. The process therefore provides a clear award outcome and scope, rather than a timetable for future delivery.

This procurement indicates demand from South Ayrshire Council for contractors able to deliver practical electrical lighting upgrades across an operational depot site. A credible competitor for a similar future requirement would need experience in external lighting installation, electrical wiring and electrical fitting, together with the capacity to work across multiple buildings and external areas. Relevant capability would include replacing floodlights and lighting column heads, installing complete new lighting columns, and integrating additional lighting on offices and wash-bay elevations. Suppliers should be able to manage a coordinated site-wide upgrade rather than a single isolated fitting job. The successful outcome also shows that an electrical contractor with a security-alarm business profile competed successfully for this type of works requirement.
