PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of Edinburgh Council procured demolition and deconstruction works for the existing industrial building at 36 West Shore Road, in Granton, Edinburgh. The requirement was to demolish the structure, with the site identified as requiring urgent action because of health and safety implications. This was a works contract in the construction and demolition sector, classified under CPV 45111000 for building demolition and wrecking work and CPV 45110000 for site preparation and clearance. The Council was the buying organisation and Edinburgh was the delivery location. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The requirement was delivered by Dem-Master Demolition Ltd, an SME based in Bathgate.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Dem-Master Demolition Ltd. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and is active. Its value is £318,335. The requirement covered one lot. Although recorded as an open procedure, the award used a direct award under Lot 4 of the Scotland Excel Demolition and Deconstruction Works framework, reference SXL1323. One bid was recorded, from an SME, and it was submitted electronically. The award followed the Council’s requirement for demolition of the Granton industrial building. The contract includes a mandatory prompt-payment clause requiring subcontractors throughout the supply chain to be paid within 30 days, with monitoring, evidence and reporting obligations for payment performance.

This award indicates demand from the City of Edinburgh Council for specialist demolition and deconstruction contractors able to undertake urgent demolition of existing industrial buildings while managing health and safety risks. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical demolition capability, suitable plant and experienced operatives, together with the ability to plan and control site clearance and associated works. Experience working through public-sector frameworks, particularly demolition and deconstruction frameworks, would be commercially relevant because this buyer used a framework route for the award. Suppliers would also need robust supply-chain management: the contract required subcontractors to be paid within 30 days, active monitoring of payment performance, and the provision of evidence and reports to the Council when required. SME participation is demonstrated by the awarded supplier and the recorded bid.
