Summary of the contracting process

Stirling Council commissioned professional design services for Cambusbarron School, covering RIBA Stages 2 to 4: developing the design from concept through technical design. The work is associated with the construction of a new or improved school facility in Cambusbarron, within the Stirling area. The procurement is classified under CPV 71200000, covering architectural and related design services. It was a single-lot requirement, with the lot covering the complete school design service. The appointed supplier is Kier Construction. This opportunity is relevant to architectural practices, multidisciplinary design teams, building contractors with in-house design capability, and organisations experienced in taking education projects from developed design through technical design.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Stirling Council used a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition, calling off the SCAPE Construction Framework. One electronic bid was received, and the evaluation resulted in the contract being awarded to Kier Construction for the single school-design lot. The contract value is £699,103 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and is recorded as active. The procurement was outside the scope of the relevant directive and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No contract duration or separate award date is recorded in the procurement outcome.

This award demonstrates demand from Stirling Council for substantial school design capability spanning RIBA Stages 2 to 4, rather than a narrowly defined architectural commission. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to develop coordinated designs into technically deliverable information, work effectively with construction teams, and manage the interfaces between design development and delivery. Experience in education environments would be directly relevant, particularly where designs must support operational school requirements, stakeholder engagement, safety and buildability. The procurement also shows that access to an established construction framework can be commercially important, and that the buyer may favour larger integrated organisations able to combine design and construction expertise.
