## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council is conducting a tender for a Framework Agreement titled "Heritage Cast Iron Columns and Brackets Framework Agreement," aimed at acquiring cast-iron columns and brackets necessary for the maintenance of the city's UNESCO World Heritage Site. This procurement falls under the goods category and has been initiated under an open procedure. The contract has been awarded to Metcraft Lighting Limited, and the total value amounts to £73,440 for columns and £10,404 for brackets, both signed on 8 July 2022. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with significant relevance to the public services sector located in Edinburgh, UKM75.
