This procurement, classified under environmental services, seeks to appoint a qualified contractor to inspect, maintain, and repair these drainage assets over a three-year period with a possible one-year extension. The procurement process follows the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and is conducted using an open procedure via the PCS-Tender system, with the tender period closing on 3rd August 2026. Community benefits are included, encouraging tenderers to propose commitments as part of their submission. This tender provides significant business opportunities, particularly for companies involved in environmental services, drainage works, and landscape gardening. It is ideal for businesses with experience in maintaining urban drainage systems and those equipped with the necessary quality and safety accreditations such as BS EN ISO 9001 and ISO 45001. With a contract value of up to £200,000, companies can leverage this opportunity to showcase their capabilities and secure a continuous workload over the contract period, potentially fostering further collaborations with public authorities like North Ayrshire Council in future projects. ## Notice North Ayrshire Council is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced Contractor to provide inspection, maintenance and repair services for Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) located across various sites throughout North Ayrshire. The Contract will operate as a Measured Term Contract on a call-off basis for an initial period of three years, with the option to extend for a further one year. ### Lot Information Lot 1 North Ayrshire Council (NAC) is responsible for the ongoing management and maintenance of a range of Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) assets located across the region. These assets include above-ground drainage features such as permeable paving, ponds, wetlands, detention basins, filter drains and associated infrastructure. SuDS play a critical role in managing surface water runoff, reducing flood risk, improving water quality and supporting biodiversity. While certain drainage infrastructure is adopted and maintained by Scottish Water, NAC retains responsibility for maintaining a number of SuDS assets that do not form part of the public drainage network. Following a review of the contract requirements, NAC is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced Contractor to provide inspection, maintenance and repair services for selected SuDS assets located throughout North Ayrshire. The revised procurement reflects an updated site list and current anticipated maintenance requirements. The Contract will operate as a Measured Term Contract (MTC) on a call-off basis. Works will be instructed by NAC in accordance with operational requirements, site conditions and available budgets throughout the Contract period. The Contract will be awarded under the SBCC Measured Term Contract for use in Scotland 2019 Edition (MTC/Scot), as supplemented by the Preliminaries and other Contract Documents issued as part of this procurement. The initial Contract Period will be three (3) years with the option, at NAC's sole discretion and subject to satisfactory performance and funding, to extend the Contract by up to a further one (1) year. Renewal: An optional extension period of 12 months has been built into the contract. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/062120-2026 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 2 Jul 2026 | | Submission deadline | 3 Aug 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | It is anticipated that the requirement for inspection, maintenance and repair services for Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) will continue beyond the term of this Contract.
