PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wills Bros Civil Engineering Ltd is procuring contract lift works for structures and similar requirements on the A9 between Tay Crossing and Ballinluig. The work is classified as construction work for roads, with the related equipment classification covering cranes (CPV 42414100); the main works classification is CPV 45233224. The requirement is intended for a specialist lifting and civil engineering contractor able to support works along this road corridor. Community benefits form part of the requirement, with the expected benefits set out in the tender documents. The buyer is Wills Bros Civil Engineering Ltd, acting as the organisation responsible for arranging the procurement. The opportunity is a single lot covering the contract lift for structures and related work.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with written submissions required. The deadline set for tenders was 7 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC, when bids were also due to be opened; the award period began on the same date. The contract period is 900 days. Bids had to remain valid until 31 December 2029. Variants were not permitted, and a fee applied for obtaining tender documents. The initial assessment covered each interested supply-chain organisation and considered technical experience, financial standing, accreditations, compliance with applicable National Highway Sector Schemes and other relevant standards. Evaluation was therefore based on technical and organisational suitability as well as financial and compliance checks.

This opportunity suits an established contract-lift, heavy-lifting or civil engineering business with experience working around road structures and comparable infrastructure projects. Suppliers need to demonstrate relevant company experience, sound financial standing and the accreditations expected for this type of work. Capability must include compliance with applicable National Highway Sector Schemes, together with other standards relevant to the services being offered. The requirement is suitable for businesses able to provide suitably qualified resources, lifting equipment and operational capacity for a substantial, long-duration roadworks assignment. Supply-chain organisations should also be prepared to demonstrate how they meet the buyer’s technical and compliance requirements and to deliver the community benefits included in the requirement.
