Summary of the contracting process

Moray Council procured engineering and technical consultancy for the Portessie Flood Protection Scheme. The requirement is described as a direct award from Lot 5 of the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy Framework; the associated work is flood-prevention services. The scheme concerns Portessie, and the buyer is Moray Council, based in Elgin. This is consultancy procurement supporting a flood protection project, rather than a contract for construction works as described in the available information. The award was made to Jeremy Benn Associates Limited, an engineering consultancy headquartered in Skipton.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is recorded as active. Moray Council made a direct award to a single supplier without competition, drawing on Lot 5 of the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy Framework. Jeremy Benn Associates Limited was selected for £53,178.82. The award concerns consultancy for the Portessie Flood Protection Scheme. The procurement record does not provide an award date or contract period, so there are no dates to report for the award or delivery term. One bid is recorded. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are stated in the available award information.

For engineering and technical consultancies working on flood-risk management, this award shows Moray Council buying specialist consultancy for a local flood protection scheme through a Scotland Excel framework. A credible competitor when a comparable requirement returns would need relevant engineering and technical consultancy capability for flood-prevention schemes, with the capacity to support the council’s project needs. The selected supplier, Jeremy Benn Associates Limited, is an engineering consultancy, and the route used here was a framework direct award rather than an open competition. Framework access and relevant project experience are therefore commercially pertinent to suppliers seeking similar work with this buyer. The award demonstrates a requirement for a focused consultancy engagement, not evidence of a wider construction contract.
