## Summary

The Highland Council has awarded a contract for emergency works on the A939 Bridge of Dava to Geo-Structural Ltd. The procurement was conducted using a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition due to extreme urgency arising from an unforeseeable event, a vehicle accident. The tender involved dismantling and rebuilding damaged parapet, spandrel wall, training wall, and carriageway works, with a contract value of £63,984.36 signed on 7th November 2023. The contracting process has progressed to the award stage, completing the emergency repair works.

This emergency contract for the A939 Bridge of Dava repairs presents business opportunities for suppliers in the construction and infrastructure maintenance sectors, particularly those with expertise in civil engineering and structural works. Due to the urgent nature of the procurement, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of rapid response and high-quality emergency works are well-suited to compete. Businesses focusing on specialist construction services and infrastructure repair may find this contract conducive to their growth and development.

### Procurement Information

This is a non-regulated procurement. The works are urgent and arose due to a vehicle accident. The decision not to tender via PCS was taken for reasons of speed, firstly to enable us to issue tenders as soon as we found a suitable contractor (without having to wait to find competitors because we initially had difficulty in finding sufficient experienced and available contractors), and secondly to give us the flexibility to open tender returns early.
