## Summary

The procurement process involves Aberdeenshire Council, which is seeking to award a framework for Construction Design Services. This project, under the general public services category, is located in Aberdeen and is currently in the Award stage. The tender encompasses seven distinct lots, including Architectural and Associated Services, Building Surveying Services, and Mechanical and Electrical Building Services. Key dates include a tender submission deadline of 16 March 2020 and an award date starting the same day, with successful contracts already signed in August 2020, indicating a robust engagement with local authorities like Aberdeen City Council and The Highland Council.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction and design sectors, particularly those with expertise in architecture, civil engineering, and landscape architecture.
