## Summary

Renfrewshire Council has recently concluded a tender for the construction works of Netherton Square, located in the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District Scotland (AMIDS) in Paisley, UK. This project is part of a broader initiative aimed at transforming Renfrewshire into a leading centre for innovation and manufacturing. The procurement method employed was a selective procedure, and the contract, valued at approximately £3,127,529.30, was awarded on May 30, 2022. The initiative is currently in the Award stage, with the completion date set to be determined following the projects’ lifecycle.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction and landscaping businesses, particularly those with a focus on public realm development and green space design. Companies that have experience in large-scale infrastructure projects, and those capable of adhering to community benefit commitments, will find this contract particularly suited to their capabilities. Additionally, businesses involved in supplying materials, landscaping, and architectural lighting may also benefit from potential subcontracting opportunities, especially given the projected future expansions valued at an additional £3 million.
