## Summary

Historic Environment Scotland has awarded a contract to LITE Ltd for the maintenance of the floodlighting systems at Edinburgh and Stirling Castles. This contract, which is categorized under Heritage, Conservation, Tourism, and Built Environment Services, was signed on 20 December 2024 and is valued at £200,000.

The expansive duration and value of this contract offer long-term business growth and the potential to foster a stable working relationship with a prestigious public entity like Historic Environment Scotland.
