Summary of the contracting process

Dumfries and Galloway Council commissioned project management services for the Whitesands Flood Protection Scheme in Whitesands, Dumfries. The work covers NEC project management through construction and the defects period, commercial management and cost control, programme management and reporting, and coordination and oversight of contractor performance. It also includes governance support, stakeholder engagement, risk management and project controls, plus support for planning, environmental and statutory compliance. Specialist services, including an Ecological Clerk of Works, are within scope when required. The procurement is for professional consultancy supporting delivery of a specific flood protection scheme, rather than construction works themselves. The listed service classification is project management consultancy (CPV 72224000).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Turner & Townsend. The award was made through an open procedure under the Engineering and Technical Consultancy framework. One bid was recorded. The contract is active and was signed on 30 September 2026, at a value of £1,124,788.59. The requirement was treated as a single lot, covering project management and related commercial, programme, governance, risk and compliance support for the scheme. The contract period and award date are not reported in the available process data, and no evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are recorded. The award value is the contract value; no separate award value is published.

This award demonstrates demand from Dumfries and Galloway Council for substantial, multidisciplinary project management support on a local flood protection scheme. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to manage NEC project delivery across construction and defects, control cost and commercial issues, maintain programmes and project controls, and provide clear reporting. Experience coordinating contractors, supporting governance and stakeholder engagement, and managing delivery risks would also be relevant. Suppliers should be able to support compliance with planning, environmental and statutory obligations, with access to specialist ecological site oversight when needed. The framework route used here indicates that suppliers seeking comparable council work should be positioned to compete through an engineering and technical consultancy framework.
