## Summary

The procurement process titled "Eyemouth Bay and Harbour Marine Engineering Concept Study" was conducted by the Scottish Borders Council, supported by the Eyemouth Harbour Trust, in the region of UKM91, United Kingdom. This procurement, which falls under the services category for environmental engineering consultancy services, reached the award stage with the award dated 30th May 2025. The process was initiated using an open procedure, aimed at exploring various aspects such as coastal, flooding, harbour master planning, and the early stages of technical feasibility and environmental assessments. The award was successfully made to Mott MacDonald Limited, with the contract being active and signed on 27th May 2025. Notably, a minimum of a 10-day standstill period was incorporated, and legal recourse is available under the Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015 for parties aggrieved by procurement rule breaches.

This study presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for firms specialising in environmental engineering consultancy services. Businesses with expertise in coastal and flooding risk management, harbour planning, and environmental assessments might find this contract particularly relevant. While the contract was awarded to a large supplier, Mott MacDonald Limited, the nature of the services sought, combined with the procurement method, suggests opportunities for businesses with a strong track record in technical feasibility studies and environmental engineering. Given the emphasis on quality (70% weight in the award criteria) alongside pricing considerations, companies with innovative solutions and high-quality delivery standards could have benefited from competing for such tenders.
