## Summary

The procurement process for the "Banff-Macduff Active Travel Bridge Design" was conducted by Aberdeenshire Council, based in Aberdeen, UK, focusing on general public services and environmental protection within the UKM50 region. The contracting process has moved through to the award stage, with the contract being signed on 1st January 2026. This specific procurement utilised a limited procurement method, resulting in a direct award to Arcadis and Moxon Architects through the Consultancy Scape framework for infrastructure projects overseen by Triskelion. The procurement, classified under CPV code 71245000, aimed to deliver comprehensive bridge design and civil engineering services without prior publication of a competition call.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in architectural services, civil engineering, and infrastructure design, especially those capable of collaborative multidisciplinary projects. While a direct award was made to large firm Arcadis, similar opportunities could arise for consultancies or contractors with strong framework agreements and expertise in similar competencies. The successful party, Arcadis, having a notable presence in the sector, illustratively underscores the importance of established frameworks and partnerships in securing such service-oriented procurement contracts.

## Notice

Direct Award to Arcadis in partnership with Moxon Architects via the Consultancy Scape framework for Infrastructure with Triskelion. This method was used during the previous design stage for the bridge because the scope of design works requires bridge design, civil engineering flatwork / streetscape design and architectural services. Several consultancies need to work closely together to combine these focusses; the Triskelion framework allows collaboration with the Council to determine the scope of the agreement that combines these disciplines under the management of one consultant contract.
