## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council is seeking suppliers for a Concession Contract titled "Summer Attraction". This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focused on recreation, culture, and religion, and is set to take place in the East Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, following a completed tender initiated on 5th July 2018, with the contract signed on 12th June 2018. The tender period ended on 19th February 2018, and the total contract value is £1,090,000, with an option to extend for an additional twenty-four months.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses in the tourism and entertainment sectors, particularly those that specialise in managing recreational attractions or events. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-positioned to compete, as evidenced by the acceptance of bids from such businesses in this tender, which received two submissions. Furthermore, suppliers capable of providing innovative attraction ideas and community engagement initiatives will likely attract favour from the contracting authority, as the Council is keen on incorporating community benefits into the contract execution.
