## Summary

The public procurement process led by Scottish Borders Council involved the purchase of bulk asphalt containers, specifically two electric static eco boxes, designed to be heated and insulated. The process falls under the "general public services" industry category and is located in the Scottish Borders region (UKM91). Managed through a limited procurement method, this award procedure did not involve prior publication due to the availability of the product from a single supplier, Proteus Equipment Ltd. This procurement reached the contract award stage, with the contract being actively signed on 24th April 2025, and the completed tender contract, identified as ID WR-180, involves an award valued at £100,500.

The procurement of specialised equipment, such as electric static eco boxes for asphalt storage, presents opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that can supply niche, technical products. Organisations similar to Proteus Equipment Ltd, which provide unique solutions in the field of industrial goods, may find ample opportunities to engage in similar tenders. However, since the exact product specifications and technical expertise were crucial to this tender's outcome, businesses equipped with specialised knowledge and capabilities in delivering technically comparable goods might gain competitive advantage in such limited-method procurement processes.
