Summary of the contracting process

Cairngorm Mountain Scotland Limited is procuring the supply of Ptarmigan Ball Runs at the Cairngorm Ski Area in Aviemore. The requirement covers a fixed ball run and a mobile ball run, as described in the project documents. This is a goods opportunity for businesses that manufacture, distribute or supply ball-run or comparable recreational equipment. The equipment is intended for use at the Cairngorm Mountain site, so suppliers should be able to provide products suitable for that setting and to meet the buyer’s technical requirements. The procurement is categorised as recreational, cultural and sporting equipment, with CPV code 37416000. The buyer is also acting as a central purchasing body.

The buyer reached the tender stage and invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were to be submitted electronically in English by 21 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with the electronic bid opening scheduled for the same time. The contract period is 30 days, and submitted bids must remain valid for 30 days from the submission deadline. There is one lot covering the supply of Ptarmigan Ball Runs. Variant bids are not allowed, and the contract does not include renewal or additional purchasing options. Electronic ordering and electronic payment are supported, while electronic invoicing is permitted. The tender provides for a 30-day period for the successful supplier to fulfil the requirement. The procurement is not recurrent.

This opportunity suits manufacturers, specialist suppliers and distributors with an established range of recreational or amusement equipment, particularly businesses able to supply both fixed and mobile ball-run systems. It may also suit firms with experience in designing or adapting equipment for visitor attractions, mountain resorts, leisure venues or other public-facing recreational environments. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate that their products meet the project specifications and provide clear technical information, commercial terms and delivery arrangements. The requirement is focused on supply rather than a recurring service, and bids must be submitted in English without variants. Businesses with reliable procurement, logistics and after-sales processes will be well placed to respond to the buyer’s requirements.
