## Summary

Glasgow City Council is preparing to initiate a tender titled "Market Engagement for Public Realm Infrastructure Works Framework." This procurement falls under the works category and is focused on the construction, repair, and maintenance of public realm schemes in Glasgow, including high-quality surfaces and street infrastructure. The planning phase is currently ongoing, with the deadline for returning the market engagement questionnaire set for close of business on 21 March 2018. The anticipated timeframe for commencing the procurement process is early May 2018, with successful appointments expected by December 2018. The framework agreement will potentially see individual work packages valued up to £20 million, delivered over a four-year period.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the construction and infrastructure sectors, particularly those specialising in public realm works, high-quality surfacing, and street furniture. Businesses that focus on green and blue infrastructure, such as drainage solutions and landscaping, would also be well-positioned to compete. This initiative encourages participation through a market engagement questionnaire that seeks to understand the capabilities of interested firms, thereby fostering a competitive environment aimed at enhancing public spaces within Glasgow.
