Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Prison Service has awarded a contract for the support and maintenance of their Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) system to Lapsley Ltd. This procurement process was conducted through a limited award procedure with a contract value of £110,000 signed on 8th February 2024. The EPOS system is essential for the operations within the SPS estate, and the awarded contract is for an initial three-year term with a possible two-year extension. The buying organisation, based in Edinburgh, UK, made a direct award considering the system's integration with their internal prisoner record system.

This contract presents an opportunity for businesses offering software maintenance and repair services to engage in providing ongoing support for a critical system operated by a national agency. Due to the specialized nature of the EPOS system's functionalities and its integration complexities with internal systems, suppliers with a track record in similar projects and expertise in software integration would be well-suited to compete. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, and this opportunity aligns with the SPS's strategic initiatives, indicating a potential for long-term business relationships beyond the contracted period.
