In plain English

East Renfrewshire Council wants a contractor to look after the school sports pitches and athletics tracks it runs. The work covers planned maintenance and repairs, with extra jobs ordered when needed, under a measured term contract (a contract where work is ordered as required and paid for by measured quantities) for 2027. The estimated value is £400,000, excluding VAT.

What the buyer wants

• Provide maintenance and repair services for school pitches and athletics tracks across the Council's non-domestic properties • Carry out planned work on a schedule, plus reactive repairs ordered as and when they are needed • Show you are experienced and suitably qualified to do this work, by completing the supplier questionnaire (the SPD) on the Public Contracts Scotland - Tender portal and following Section III of the notice

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice sets no specific turnover, insurance or accreditation thresholds, but it asks for an experienced and suitably qualified supplier, requires you to self-certify against the conditions of participation in the SPD, and may ask for Means of Proof (evidence backing up your answers) before award, so a small firm without a clear track record of pitch or athletics work could struggle to qualify.

Always check the tender documents.
