## Summary

South Ayrshire Council has completed a limited procurement process to award a contract for the provision of a flight simulator for the International Ayr Show - Festival of Flight 2024. The procurement falls under the industry category of general public services and will primarily take place in Ayr, Scotland (UKM94). This procurement involved an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, justified as being outside the scope of standard regulations. The contract was signed on 6th August 2024, with key connection details to the council found at Wellington Square, Ayr. This procurement process has moved past the tender stage and is now in the award stage.

This tender represents a unique business opportunity, particularly for SMEs specialising in the provision of aviation-related equipment and flight simulation technology. The successful supplier, Caithness Leisure, highlights that there is room for smaller businesses to secure contracts with significant local councils through strategic and specialised service offerings. With the focus on local events and public services, businesses with relevant expertise within the specified region can look forward to similar opportunities that drive growth and establish strong partnerships with local government bodies.
