## Summary

The North Lanarkshire Council is conducting a procurement process for the "Bitumen Macadam (Bitmac) Repairs 2018 – 2022" project, focusing on repairs and maintenance of its corporate and housing property portfolios within the North Lanarkshire area. The procurement method is selective, using a restricted procedure, and is currently at the award stage as of the contract signing on 20th June 2018. The tender period ended on 25th September 2017, with the estimated contract value at approximately £12 million. Interested businesses must meet various technical and financial criteria, and the contracting authority has indicated they will incorporate community benefits into this requirement.

This procurement opportunity is ideal for companies specialising in construction and maintenance services, particularly those with expertise in bituminous macadam work. Businesses with substantial experience in managing high-volume orders and prioritised repair tasks within the public sector will be well-suited to participate. It is also crucial for bidders to demonstrate a robust financial background, as a minimum turnover requirement of £1.5 million over the last three years has been set. The emphasis on community benefits also suggests that smaller enterprises and social enterprises may find avenues to participate in subcontracting opportunities linked to this contract.
