## Summary

Aberdeenshire Council is currently inviting tenders for a project focused on the permanent repair of potholes in Portlethen, Newtonhill, and Muchalls, as part of its wider works programme in the general public services sector. The tender period is active and will close on 13 September 2021 at 12:00, with the bid opening scheduled for the same day at 14:00. The total value of this tender is estimated at £100,000 and is classified under the open procurement method, allowing all interested suppliers to submit proposals electronically via the specified submission platform.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in road works, civil engineering, or construction. Companies equipped with the necessary skills and certifications, such as those holding HAUC Supervisor and Operative Cards, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in such contracts can help enhance the operational capacity and visibility of participating businesses in the local market, contributing to long-term growth and new client acquisition.

## Notice

The works will involve permanently repairing potholes that have formed around the towns of Portlethen, Newtonhill and the village of Muchalls. The repairs should be carried out by saw cutting around the road defects to achieve a vertical edge, removing the defective road surface material, sweeping the debris, and applying a tack coat on the base and the vertical edges. Hot bituminous material should be laid either by hand or by mechanical means and compacted using a roller. Finally, a HAPAS approved anti-skid over-banding should be applied to all joints to prevent the ingress of surface water.
