Summary of the contracting process

Dumfries and Galloway Council bought civil engineering consultancy and specialist technical support for public transport, electric vehicle and cycling infrastructure. The work covers groundworks and installation for public EV charge points; design and build of two EV bus-charging laybys in Lockerbie and Castle Douglas; design and build of secure public cycle storage in Whithorn; and design, supply, installation and reinstatement of bus shelters and associated infrastructure. This is a consultancy requirement supporting the delivery of physical infrastructure, rather than simply the supply of equipment. The named delivery locations are Lockerbie, Castle Douglas and Whithorn, within the council’s area. Scotland Excel acted for the council in running the procurement but was not to be party to or manage the contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Amey OW Limited was selected for the single lot through a direct award from the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy Framework. The contract is valued at £95,000. It was signed on 18 September 2026; no contract start or end dates are provided here. Three bids were recorded. The available information does not state the evaluation criteria or explain how bids were assessed, so the award’s evaluation basis cannot be described. The procurement was for one combined requirement covering consultancy support across EV charging, bus facilities and public cycle storage, rather than separate awards for each location or infrastructure element.

This award demonstrates demand from Dumfries and Galloway Council for civil engineering consultancy that can support several kinds of public infrastructure within one requirement. A credible competitor would need to provide specialist engineering advice and practical technical support across groundworks, EV charge-point installation, bus-charging facilities, secure cycle storage and bus shelters. The scope also calls for capability spanning design and build, supply and installation, and reinstatement, so experience coordinating connected design and delivery tasks would be relevant. Suppliers seeking comparable work should be able to demonstrate suitable capability for projects at multiple locations, including Lockerbie, Castle Douglas and Whithorn. The route used was an award from the Scotland Excel Engineering and Technical Consultancy Framework, making framework access relevant to competing for this buyer’s similar requirements. No particular accreditation or minimum capacity requirement is stated.
