Procurement
Information on how to tender for work and invitations to tender
Depending on the nature and value of projects, our tender opportunities are either advertised via Public Contracts Scotland (PCS), an online portal hosted by the Scottish Government, or are quick quoted in-house. Tenders must be sought from suppliers who have the experience and expertise to meet our requirements. This can be done either in-house by the authorised staff members or in conjunction with a consultant Quantity Surveyor using the Public Contracts Scotland Portal. Unless there is good reason for doing so, the Association will endeavour not to restrict our selection to existing suppliers in order to facilitate competition, encourage innovation and ensure best value. A record will be maintained of all tenders received on our Contract Register.
Further information can be found within the Association's Procurement Policy which is available here.
