Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, trading as Public Services Delivery Scotland, procured an education package for General Practice Specialty Training Registrars (GPSTRs) in Scotland. The requirement is for education and training services supporting registrars undertaking general practice specialty training. Delivery is in Scotland. The procurement was arranged as one lot and relates specifically to this registrar education package, rather than a general training service.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to GP Update Limited, which signed it on 5 October 2026. The contract value is £848,160. The stated contract period is 360 days, with two possible further 12-month renewal periods. The buyer used an open procedure. Technical quality accounted for 60% of the evaluation and price for 40%; variants were not allowed. Two bids were received for the lot. The procurement’s tender deadline was 29 May 2026.

This award shows demand from Public Services Delivery Scotland for a defined education package for general practice specialty training registrars in Scotland. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to design and deliver relevant education and training for this specialist clinical trainee group, with technical quality carrying greater weight than price in the evaluation. The two bids indicate competition for the requirement, while the selected supplier was a large company. Suppliers should be equipped to deliver the package at the scale and duration of a year-long programme, with the operational capacity to support the training cohort and the potential for further periods of delivery.
