The work is to install approximately 155 metres of new boundary fencing on Meiklewood Road, Kilmarnock. This is a construction and fencing installation project (CPV 45342000), rather than a supply-only purchase. The described work concerns the school boundary at the stated Kilmarnock location. The Council invited offers through an open procedure. The tender set a submission deadline of 15 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with the award period scheduled to start at that time. The contract is for four weeks; the lot also records a 30-day contract duration. No estimated contract value is stated. There is one lot, and variant bids are not permitted. Bids are to be submitted electronically in English and remain valid for 90 days. Evaluation includes a financial-standing threshold: the Council will use a Creditsafe business credit report, and a score below 30 out of 100 results in failure. Scores from 30 to 50 may prompt requests for further financial information. The specified insurance requirements are £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability per claim. This opportunity is suited to fencing and construction contractors able to install a new boundary fence at a school site in Kilmarnock. Suppliers need the practical capacity to deliver approximately 155 metres of fencing within the stated four-week contract period. Financial standing is a material participation requirement: the Council assesses bidders using Creditsafe, with a minimum credit score of 30 out of 100; those scoring between 30 and 50 may need to provide further financial information or acceptable measures to address the Council’s concerns. Contractors must hold, or be able to obtain before work starts, public and products liability insurance of £5 million per claim and employers’ liability insurance of £10 million per claim. The notice does not set out specific fencing materials, technical credentials or prior-experience requirements. ## Notice Name: Onthank PS Additional Fencing Nature: The installation of a new boundary fence approx. 155m in length Location: Meiklewood Road, Kilmarnock, KA3 2ES Length of contract: 4 weeks ### Lot Information Lot 1 Name: Onthank PS Additional Fencing Nature: The installation of a new boundary fence approx. 155m in length Location: Meiklewood Road, Kilmarnock, KA3 2ES Length of contract: 4 weeks ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP565431 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Sep 2026 | | Submission deadline | 15 Oct 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | East Ayrshire Council | | Locality | KILMARNOCK | | Postcode area | Kilmarnock | | Postcode | KA3 7BU | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM9 Southern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM93 North Ayrshire and East Ayrshire | | Local authority | East Ayrshire | | Electoral ward | Kilmarnock East and Hurlford | | Westminster constituency | Kilmarnock and Loudoun | | Delivery location | TLM93 North Ayrshire and East Ayrshire | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45340000 - Fencing, railing and safety equipment installation work - 45342000 - Erection of fencing ## Release History - 28 Sep 2026 at 01:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP565431 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP565431 PS-26-69 - Onthank PS - External Fencing Replacement (PRJ0013865) - Name: Onthank PS Additional Fencing Nature: The installation of a new boundary fence approx. 155m in length Location: Meiklewood Road, Kilmarnock, KA3 2ES Length of contract: 4 weeks ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.east-ayrshire.gov.uk - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2343 - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000844186 - https://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
