## Summary

The East Ayrshire Council is conducting the Winter Maintenance Assistance Framework tender, which provides contractor assistance during adverse winter weather across East and South Ayrshire. The procurement process is currently in the award stage, having begun with the tender period that concluded on 10 September 2019. Interested parties were required to express their interest by 9 September 2019. The project encompasses three lots, including gritting and snow clearing operations, and winter treatment services for priority footways, all classified under general public services with compliance to an open procedure procurement method.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in winter maintenance services, including those offering gritting, snow clearing, and road treatment solutions. Contractors equipped to respond to urgent weather-related calls, particularly those with capabilities in liquid de-icer applications and operational flexibility, will find this procurement highly relevant. The East Ayrshire Council encourages engagement from local suppliers who are keen to contribute to public service operations while expanding their business portfolio in the local government sector.
