Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council is seeking a contractor to replace fencing at Onthank Primary School. The work is to install approximately 155 metres of new boundary fencing on Meiklewood Road, Kilmarnock. This is a construction and fencing installation project (CPV 45342000), rather than a supply-only purchase. The described work concerns the school boundary at the stated Kilmarnock location.

The Council invited offers through an open procedure. The tender set a submission deadline of 15 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with the award period scheduled to start at that time. The contract is for four weeks; the lot also records a 30-day contract duration. No estimated contract value is stated. There is one lot, and variant bids are not permitted. Bids are to be submitted electronically in English and remain valid for 90 days. Evaluation includes a financial-standing threshold: the Council will use a Creditsafe business credit report, and a score below 30 out of 100 results in failure. Scores from 30 to 50 may prompt requests for further financial information. The specified insurance requirements are £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability per claim.

This opportunity is suited to fencing and construction contractors able to install a new boundary fence at a school site in Kilmarnock. Suppliers need the practical capacity to deliver approximately 155 metres of fencing within the stated four-week contract period. Financial standing is a material participation requirement: the Council assesses bidders using Creditsafe, with a minimum credit score of 30 out of 100; those scoring between 30 and 50 may need to provide further financial information or acceptable measures to address the Council’s concerns. Contractors must hold, or be able to obtain before work starts, public and products liability insurance of £5 million per claim and employers’ liability insurance of £10 million per claim. The notice does not set out specific fencing materials, technical credentials or prior-experience requirements.
