The tender is currently in the planning stage, with a closing date for submissions set on 13 December 2019. The contract period is anticipated to commence on 1 April 2021 and extend until 31 March 2028, with the potential for two 12-month extensions. This opportunity falls under the industry category of 'Gas distribution ancillary work' and will predominantly affect urban areas, including Edinburgh and Glasgow. This tender offers significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction and utilities sectors, particularly those with experience in gas infrastructure projects.
