Summary of the contracting process

Stirling Council commissioned the restoration and reconstruction of the Paterson Memorial Clock in Bridge of Allan, following vehicle damage. The work covers a historic clock and includes bespoke metalwork fabrication using specialist pattern-making techniques. Delivery is in Stirling. This is a heritage restoration and reconstruction project rather than general construction work, with the requirement focused on preserving and rebuilding a specific historic asset.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to JPS Restoration and Consultancy Ltd. The contract is active and was signed on 1 September 2026, with a contract value of £120,000. The process used a limited award procedure without a prior competition notice. Stirling Council justified this route on technical grounds: it considered that very few specialist contractors could deliver the bespoke pattern-making required, and that continuity of specialist knowledge and confidence in workmanship were important to protect the historic clock. The procurement comprised a single lot covering restoration and reconstruction of the Paterson Memorial Clock. One bid was recorded. No contract period or award date is stated in the available process information.

For suppliers considering comparable future work for Stirling Council, this award indicates demand for specialist heritage restoration where damage has affected a distinctive historic asset. Credible competitors would need demonstrable expertise in bespoke pattern-making and the fabrication of metalwork, alongside restoration skills suited to historic clocks. The Council’s stated emphasis on continuity of specialist knowledge and confidence in workmanship suggests that relevant project experience, a clear approach to preserving historic fabric and evidence of high-quality delivery would be important. The Council also cited the scarcity of capable contractors, particularly in Scotland, and reluctance among some firms elsewhere in the UK to work there. Suppliers able to undertake specialist work in Scotland would therefore be well placed.

Procurement Information

The supplier is one of the few specialist contractors capable of delivering the bespoke pattern-making techniques necessary for the fabrication of the metalwork. Contractors with the required skills and experience are scarce, particularly within Scotland. From advice specialist firms based elsewhere in the UK are either unwilling to undertake projects in Scotland. Given the importance and sensitivity of this historic asset, continuity of specialist knowledge and confidence in the quality of workmanship are key considerations in ensuring its long-term preservation.
