## Summary

The public procurement process for the "Inverness Campus Phase 2 Infrastructure Design Team" was led by Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE). This initiative falls under the industry category of services, specifically within economic affairs, and it covers the design and leading of a comprehensive infrastructure design team. The project is located in Inverness, UK, and pertained to RIBA Stage 4, encompassing roles in architecture, civil/structural engineering, landscape architecture, and more. The procurement employed a selective method, using a restricted procedure, and reached the award stage as of 10th February 2026. The contract period begins on 9th February 2026, extending for an initial period of 12 months with an optional 6-month extension.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in architectural and engineering consultancy services to engage in a significant public infrastructure project. It is suitable for SMEs familiar with structured procurement processes, especially those capable of meeting the technical and economic criteria. With an estimated contract value around GBP 256,777.75 and options to extend services, it provides a platform for small to medium enterprises such as Civic Engineers Limited, the successful supplier, to collaborate and potentially expand service offerings aligned with evolving client demands and strategic focuses. The scope for subcontracting introduces further opportunities for niche specialists to contribute to and benefit from this high-profile initiative.
