## Summary

Transport Scotland is conducting the procurement process for the "A77 Maybole Bypass" project, which falls under the transport industry category. Located in South Ayrshire, this project entails the design, construction, completion, and maintenance of a new approximately 5km single carriageway bypass to the north-west of Maybole. The procurement method employed is selective, with a competitive dialogue process in place. The tender was awarded to Wills Bros Civil Engineering Ltd on 12th April 2019, with a contract value of approximately £28.93 million, covering a construction period of around 24 months followed by a 5-year maintenance period.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for civil engineering firms, especially SMEs, looking to expand their portfolio in infrastructure projects. Companies that specialise in road construction, drainage systems, environmental mitigation, and various related structural works would be well-suited to compete for future projects of this nature. The requirement for community benefits, including employment and subcontracting opportunities for local businesses, further enhances the growth potential for firms willing to engage with transport and construction agencies.
