This framework focuses on drainage cleaning and maintenance services across multiple regions, including Dundee, Angus, Fife and Perthshire, Edinburgh, and Aberdeen/Shire. With a procurement method of an open procedure, the tender involves a substantial budget, previously estimated at £400,000 over three years. The key dates involved include a past round of tender submissions that ended on 14th August 2025, with bids formerly opening on 15th August 2025. Unfortunately, the previously awarded contracts in the mentioned regions were eventually cancelled or declared unsuccessful. This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity for companies specialising in drainage works, particularly those offering high-quality services capable of emergency response within tight regional deadlines. The procurement is best suited for businesses with expertise in unblocking, clearing, jetting, and CCTV surveying as well as repair and maintenance of drainage systems. Organisations that can provide superior quality alongside competitive pricing will stand a better chance in securing a place in the framework, which allows for potential contract renewals and extensions. The requirement for quick regional response times makes this most relevant to firms with local infrastructure and resources. ## Notice Drainage cleaning and maintenance services ### Lot Information Dundee and surrounding areas Cleaning and Maintenance of drainage systems including but not limited to:- Unblocking, clearing, jetting, CCTV surveying, repairs and maintenance Additional information: An out of hours/emergency service is an essential requirement of this contract.
