This contract involves upgrading a 1000m aggregate path with a width of 1.8m, including drainage work and path camber adjustments on slopes. The location for these upgrade works is at Portlethen in the Aberdeenshire region. The procurement followed an open procedure, and key dates include the contract notice issued on 17 September 2024, the tender submission deadline on 8 October 2024, and the contract signing on 30 October 2024. The total contract value is £29,499. The procurement fell under the "works" category, specifically related to road construction and outdoor access, and the awarded contract is active as of the notice date 28 November 2024. This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses within the construction industry, especially those specializing in road and path construction, aggregate supply, and drainage solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would have found this tender particularly suitable, as demonstrated by the award of the contract to Deeside Road Construction Ltd, an SME. The project required specific technical capabilities related to path surfacing and drainage, providing a substantial opportunity for businesses that can demonstrate expertise in these areas. With Aberdeenshire Council as the contracting authority, companies involved in similar public works projects can leverage this experience for future bids within the region. ## Notice 1000m aggregate path upgrade works, 1.8m width. Drainage and path camber required on slopes. ### Lot Information Lot 1 1000m of path surfacing has degraded and narrowed from an average width of 1.8m to 1.2m whilst short sections of path have been identified as having drainage issues. The paths will therefore be upgraded; scrapped back to their original width of 1.8m and 100mm aggregate sub-base type 1 will be applied followed by 25mm dust to improve the surfacing. Sections with drainage issues will be raised up with 150mm aggregate sub-base type 1. A 1:30 camber has been specified to allow the water to run off the path surface. A 1:20 camber has been specified for the steeper slopes. A drainage ditch will be constructed along a section of path to the east of the site to remove water ingress along that section. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV519238 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Nov 2024 | | Submission deadline | 8 Oct 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Oct 2024 | | Contract period | 4 Nov 2024 - 4 Dec 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £29,499 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ABERDEENSHIRE COUNCIL | | Locality | ABERDEEN | | Post town | Aberdeen | | Postcode | AB16 5GB | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM5 North Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM50 Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire | | Local authority | Aberdeen City | | Electoral ward | Midstocket/Rosemount | | Westminster constituency | Aberdeen North | | Delivery location | TLM50 Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | DEESIDE ROAD CONSTRUCTION | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45233160 - Paths and other metalled surfaces - 45233161 - Footpath construction work - 45233162 - Cycle path construction work - 45233253 - Surface work for footpaths ## Release History - 28 Nov 2024 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV519238 - 17 Sep 2024 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP514460 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=1 17th September 2024 - Statement of requirements - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=2 17th September 2024 - Pricing schedule - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=3 17th September 2024 - Bill of Quantities - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=4 17th September 2024 - Declaration - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=5 17th September 2024 - Conditions of contract - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=6 17th September 2024 - Award questionnaire - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=7 17th September 2024 - Pre-construction information - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=8 17th September 2024 - Utilities - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=9 17th September 2024 - Plan, survey, drawings and specifications - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=SEP514460&idx=10 17th September 2024 - Invitation to tender - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP514460 Portlethen Community Woodland - Path upgrades - 1000m aggregate path upgrade works, 1.8m width.
