The trail leads users along a narrow path next to a fast flowing burn in a steep gorge. The trail is often cited by the Visitor Safety Group as an example of where trails can be built and maintained in higher risk localities. In recent months there has been evidence of some movement of stumps above the gorge and a stability survey was commissioned to assess safety and maintenance requirements. In late 2020 a full geotechnical and hydrological survey was undertaken in Pucks Glen to assess and identify the key risks and remedial work required in the glen. The resultant report recommended 5 remedial works identified as part of Stage 1 remedial works required to enable the safe reopening of the trail.In respect of the above, FLS require geotechnical works to be undertaken to reduce risk to enable safe usage of the Pucks Glen Trail. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB406747 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Feb 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 15 Feb 2021 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £35,345 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | FORESTRY AND LAND SCOTLAND | | Additional buyers | ACCOUNTANT IN BANKRUPTCY; ARGYLL COMMUNITY HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED; COMHAIRLE NAN EILEAN SIAR; DUMFRIES AND GALLOWAY COUNCIL; EAST LOTHIAN COUNCIL; NATIONAL LIBRARY OF SCOTLAND; NEW COLLEGE LANARKSHIRE; NHS LANARKSHIRE; NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL; PERTH & KINROSS COUNCIL; SCOTTISH FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE; SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT; SCOTTISH POLICE AUTHORITY; SCOTTISH QUALIFICATIONS AUTHORITY; SOCIAL CARE AND SOCIAL WORK IMPROVEMENT SCOTLAND (CARE INSPECTORATE) | | Locality | INVERNESS | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV2 7GB | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Argyll and Bute | | Electoral ward | Mid Argyll | | Westminster constituency | Argyll, Bute and South Lochaber | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 38 | | Supplier names | A M PHILLIP TRUCKTECH; AIRSTREAM VENTILATION SOLUTIONS; ALLSPORTS CONSTRUCTION & MAINTENANCE; AMD CONTRACT SERVICES; ASA RECRUITMENT (QUICK QUOTES; AURORA TRANSPORT; BOREAL FORESTRY; BSL INTERIORS; C AND A INTERIORS; CAPTURE ALL; CASTLEVIEW PLANT; CODECLAN; DMFCA; GEO-ROPE; HARVEY NASH; HAS TECHNOLOGY; HIGHAND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT; IMPACT FUNDING PARTNERS; IVOR KNOX CONSULTING; JOHN GILBERT ARCHITECTS; KINGDOM SERVICES GROUP; KPMG; LORETTO CARE; LORIEN RESOURCING; MORRIS & SPOTTISWOOD; NICOLA ASKHAM; NITH VALLEY CONSTRUCTION; OLM SCOTLAND; PITNEY BOWES; REPUBLIC OF MEDIA; RF BROWN CONTAINERS; ROSS MACARTHUR CONTRACTORS; SUPPORT IN MIND SCOTLAND; THE GOOD BOX CO LABS LTD T/A GOODBOX; THE ROCK TRUST; VENESKY BROWN; VENESKY-BROWN RECRUITMENT; WILSONS AUCTIONS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services ### Codes - 77000000 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services - 77200000 - Forestry services ## Release History - 15 Feb 2021 at 14:11 - Award - PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB406747 ## Notice URLs - http://firescotland.gov.uk - http://https://forestryandland.gov.scot - http://https://www.cne-siar.gov.uk - http://www.acha.co.uk - http://www.aib.gov.uk - http://www.careinspectorate.gov.scot - http://www.dumgal.gov.uk - http://www.eastlothian.gov.uk - http://www.nclanarkshire.ac.uk - http://www.nhslanarkshire.org.uk - http://www.nls.uk - http://www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk - http://www.pkc.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - http://www.spa.police.uk - http://www.sqa.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
