OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture SCIO (SLLC) intends to procure resalable sports equipment and other retail goods for sale to customers at SLLC leisure facilities. The supplier would provide and display stock at facilities selected by SLLC, with the goods sold on a consignment basis. Payment to the supplier would be based on items sold. This is a supply contract for sports goods and sundry retail items, intended for use across multiple leisure venues in South Lanarkshire.

The procurement is at the planning stage: SLLC has announced its intention to buy and is seeking market input through a questionnaire, rather than inviting bids. It is planned as a single lot. The estimated procurement value is £383,666.05. SLLC expects to publish a further notice on 11 January 2027; this is an indicative planning date, not a tender deadline. No procedure or evaluation basis is set out at this stage. The proposed consignment arrangement means the supplier would be paid according to sales rather than simply supplying a fixed order.

This is likely to suit suppliers with a range of sports equipment and related retail products, and the ability to supply, present and manage stock across several leisure facilities. Experience in retailing sports goods and operating consignment arrangements would be relevant, particularly the capacity to coordinate deliveries and displays across multiple sites and track sales accurately for payment. The buyer is seeking information from interested organisations now to inform its procurement plans, so suppliers in this market can help shape the requirements by responding to the market engagement questionnaire. The later competition will be the point to assess the final requirements and prepare a bid; this planning announcement is not an invitation to tender.
