## Summary

North Ayrshire Council has completed a modification stage for a public procurement contract concerning the maintenance, warranty, and data sim needs for electric vehicle (EV) charge points, specifically targeting Evolt branded Circontrol units. Located in the UKM93 region, this service-focused procurement involved an extension of the contractual end date to 31st December 2026, originally set for 31st May 2026. The tender, identified as NAC/STA/5240, employed a limited procurement method without prior publication, primarily due to SWARCO Smart Charging Ltd’s exclusivity agreement with Circontrol, which restricts competition due to technical reasons. The overall contract value is assessed at £25,000, and the award was officially signed on 13th July 2026.

This procurement process provides business opportunities chiefly for organisations capable of managing and supporting EV charging infrastructure, especially those with technical expertise and licensing agreements similar to SWARCO Smart Charging Ltd. With a strategic focus on maintaining critical EV charging facilities, firms specialising in such technological services could benefit significantly. Businesses that align with evolving green transport initiatives and possess the capacity to handle software and firmware updates for specific units will find this tender particularly advantageous for growth and partnership development with local government authorities.
