Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the 'Provision of Storage and Transportation Services' was conducted by the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service (SCTS), based in Edinburgh. This tender, identified as SCTS-2024-003, falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on storage and warehousing services. It aimed to establish a fully managed service for the storage and transportation of goods across the SCTS estate in Scotland. The procurement method used was a restricted procedure, and the tender stage is now complete, with the contract awarded to Restore Harrow Green on 13 October 2025. The contract, valued at £292,400, had been open for electronic submissions until 19 February 2025, with the service period spanning from 21 July 2025 to 20 July 2028, with an optional 12-month extension. The primary location for service delivery is the region of UKM (Scotland).

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth for businesses specialising in logistics, storage, and transportation services. Companies with robust delivery plans, effective risk management strategies, and sustainable practices are well-suited to compete, as these were key criteria in the award decision. With the service covering the entire SCTS estate across Scotland, businesses already operating within the region or those looking to expand their geographical reach can benefit from participating. The focus on continuous improvement and innovation suggests that businesses that propose new and efficient methods for managing storage and transportation could have a competitive edge. This contract offers a platform for businesses to establish a lasting relationship with a prominent public sector organisation, potentially leading to continued opportunities in future tender renewals or extensions.
