## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the University of Edinburgh, involves the installation and commissioning of two 10-ton cranes at the proposed FASTBLADE premises in Rosyth, UK. The procurement, classified under the goods category, was carried out through a limited method, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to specific technical requirements tied to the building's structural evaluation. The award was completed on 13th September 2019, with a contract value of £197,955. The project is now classified as complete.

This tender represents a key opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in crane installation and maintenance, as well as engineering firms with expertise in structural modifications. Given the technical nature of the procurement, companies with a strong background in providing goods and services tailored to engineering and construction sectors would be well-positioned to compete in future projects. Engaging with the University of Edinburgh and understanding the nuances of such tender requirements could facilitate significant business growth in this sector.
