## Summary

This procurement process was initiated by Perth & Kinross Council for the repair and scour protection of the A827 Bolfracks Gabion Wall, located between Aberfeldy and Kenmore in Scotland. The procurement, identified as PKC13024, falls under the 'works' category, specifically involving construction and repair services. The council employed an open procurement procedure, with the contract awarded to MAM Contracting. The procurement has moved through stages, including tender and award, with the contract signed on 16 June 2025 for a value of £439,210.55 GBP. The project is crucial due to its environmental significance and the requirement to minimise disruptions on the A827 road, a key route in the area.

The contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those with expertise in gabion wall repairs and environmental protection works. With a focus on minimising road closure durations, experienced contractors can leverage their skills in environmental management and civil engineering for similar projects, helping to secure future opportunities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities in implementing rockbag scour protection and maintaining construction works can benefit significantly. Businesses intent on growth in the infrastructure sector within Scotland will find this tender relevant. Robust insurance coverage and technical competency, along with adherence to environmental and health standards, were key selection criteria in this procurement process.
