Summary of the contracting process

The City of Edinburgh Council procured works to install temporary toilets at Straiton Place Park in Edinburgh. The requirement covered one lot and concerned the provision and installation of temporary toilet facilities for use at the park. The council is the buying organisation and the work is located in Edinburgh. This is a facilities and temporary modular building installation requirement, relevant to contractors that supply temporary toilets, modular welfare facilities or associated installation services. The appointed supplier was Portakabin (Scotland) Ltd, based in Hamilton. The procurement was classified as construction work under CPV 45000000. The requirement is specific to temporary toilet provision rather than general cleaning, permanent construction or wider park maintenance services.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through an open procedure. It consisted of one lot for the installation of temporary toilets. Portakabin (Scotland) Ltd was the successful supplier. The contract value is £120,000, and the contract was signed on 1 April 2026. The contract is recorded as active. One bid was received for the lot, with no bids from small or medium-sized enterprises and one bid from outside the European Union. The published outcome records the council’s selected supplier and provides a benchmark for the scale and route used to procure temporary toilet installation at Straiton Place Park. No award date is recorded separately from the signed contract information.

This award is commercially relevant to businesses that can supply and install temporary toilet facilities for a local authority in Edinburgh. A credible competitor would need practical capability in temporary or modular welfare units, site installation and delivery to a public park, together with the capacity to manage a council requirement of this scale. The outcome shows that the council used an open procedure for a single, defined installation requirement and that the successful supplier was a large specialist provider. Firms seeking similar work should be able to demonstrate reliable mobilisation, safe installation and experience delivering temporary facilities in public-sector or comparable public-use settings. The procurement also provides a clear reference requirement for monitoring future council demand in this area.
