The tender falls under the "General public services" industry category and is located within region UKM75, Edinburgh, UK. Commencing with an open procurement method, the process moved from the tender stage, which concluded on 3rd April 2025, to awarding the contract to SCOTBARK on 7th May 2025, with a contract value of GBP 350,000. The contract was awarded following a completion of competitive criteria, scoring based on 60% quality and 40% price, underpinned by strong environmental management measures aligning with Edinburgh's Low Emission Zone standards. This tender presents substantial opportunities for companies within the supplier and landscaping industries, specifically those with expertise in sustainable practices and a focus on meeting environmental criteria as specified by local regulatory standards. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) like SCOTBARK—who not only succeed in adhering to such environmental mandates but also exhibit strong financial stability, as evidenced by their successful bid—would find themselves well-positioned to compete for similar projects. Participation in this contract can bolster business portfolios by aligning with regional sustainability goals, thereby enhancing reputational capital and broadening reach within municipal contracting circles. ## Notice The City of Edinburgh Council requires a contractor to supply and spread wood chip within Council owned play areas.
