The contract, which falls under the 'services' procurement category, is anticipated to see significant engagement from SBc Contracts as the principal users. The procurement process is currently in the active phase, with bids open until 14th May 2021 for various lots, including groundworks, masonry, road surfacing, and more. The estimated value of the framework is £20 million, and potential contractors must provide specific qualifications and insurance cover. This framework agreement presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in construction, maintenance, and related services, particularly SMEs capable of delivering quality services on various infrastructure projects. Companies with expertise in landscaping, plumbing, electrical works, and scaffolding are well-positioned to compete in this tender. The framework also emphasizes community benefits, encouraging contractors to provide local employment and development opportunities as they engage with council projects. This is an excellent chance for regional suppliers to secure steady work while contributing positively to their communities. ## Notice Scottish Borders Council is awarding a multi lot, multi supplier Framework Agreement for the provision of subcontractor services. ### Lot Information Painting & Decorating Painting & Decorating (External & Internal) for Infrastructure, new build and maintenance projects which may consist of but are not limited to:- Housing Industrial Development Public Building, Schools etc. Civil Engineering Works Renewal: The framework is being awarded for an initial period of 24 months with the option to extend for a further 2 x 12 months up to the maximum duration of 48 months.
