Summary of the contracting process

South Ayrshire Council procured a debt recovery and diligence service, classified as business support services (CPV 79940000). The work was for the council and associated with Ayr. The requirement was treated as a single lot and covered recovery of debts and related diligence activity.

The procurement is complete and Stirling Park LLP was selected for the single lot. The contract is active and was signed on 9 September 2026, at a value of £15,000. The council used a limited award procedure without a prior call for competition, drawing on the SXL framework and referring to its Lots 1 and 2. One bid was recorded. No separate award date or contract-period dates are stated in the available process details.

For suppliers considering similar future work for South Ayrshire Council, the requirement demonstrates demand for debt recovery and diligence services through the SXL framework. A credible competitor would need the operational capability to pursue debt recovery and carry out the associated diligence work. The recorded outcome shows that a supplier operating at a modest contract scale was selected, and that this award attracted one bid. The selected supplier was identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The process therefore provides a concrete reference point for firms whose service delivery and commercial approach fit this council’s requirement and the framework route used.
