This initiative focuses on assessing options and associated costs to enhance Scotland’s transport capabilities for facilitating overseas exports, building on a previous study conducted in 2016. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 20th September 2018 at 12:00 PM. The procurement method employed is an open procedure within the services category, specifically targeting businesses in the transport and infrastructure industry, located in Edinburgh, UK. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses that specialise in transport logistics, infrastructure development, and consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in mitigating supply chain disruptions, such as those anticipated due to Brexit. Firms with a proven track record in enhancing export resilience for food and drink sectors will find this tender particularly relevant. Participation in this project could lead to significant contracts that contribute to business growth and expand operational capabilities within Scotland's economy. ## Notice this project will aim to build on the 2016 study, by assessing possible options and associated costs of developing Scotland's capacity and transport infrastructure to facilitate more overseas exports leaving from Scottish hubs. ### Lot Information Lot 1 There are no guarantees that events similar to those of 2015 will not occur again, taken together with the uncertainty of how Brexit will impact our supply chains and administrative processes at key transportation hubs, it is important to explore options for mitigating these issues. Consequently, this project will aim to build on the 2016 study, by assessing possible options and associated costs of developing Scotland's capacity and transport infrastructure to facilitate more overseas exports leaving from Scottish hubs. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB344182 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Feb 2019 | | Submission deadline | 20 Sep 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 22 Nov 2018 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £32,485 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH6 6QQ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Leith | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh North and Leith | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | SYSTRA | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 5 Feb 2019 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB344182 - 23 Aug 2018 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG328972 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG328972&idx=1 23rd August 2018 - ITT Docs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG328972&idx=2 23rd August 2018 - FAQs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG328972 Options for Scotland's Transport Infrastructure Strengthen Export Resilience of the Food and Drink - this project will aim to build on the 2016 study, by assessing possible options and associated costs of developing Scotland's capacity and transport infrastructure to facilitate more overseas exports leaving from Scottish hubs. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB344182 Options for Scotland's Transport Infrastructure Strengthen Export Resilience of the Food and Drink - this project will aim to build on the 2016 study, by assessing possible options and associated costs of developing Scotland's capacity and transport infrastructure to facilitate more overseas exports leaving from Scottish hubs. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000554739 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
