Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Care Inspectorate bought JEGS evaluation services, a consultancy service for evaluating JEGS. The requirement was treated as a single package and delivered in Scotland. The procurement rationale says the Care Inspectorate had adopted the JEGS methodology; the evaluation service was therefore tied to that methodology.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Beamans Limited. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026, with a stated contract period from 15 September 2026 to 14 September 2029. Its value is £250,000. The Care Inspectorate used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, citing the use of its adopted JEGS methodology and the absence of technical competition. Evaluation was based entirely on quality, with no price weighting; the stated award basis refers to an approved non-competitive action. One bid was received, from an SME.

For suppliers considering this buyer’s future requirement, the relevant capability is evaluation services using the JEGS methodology adopted by the Care Inspectorate. This procurement was justified on the basis that the methodology could be provided by a particular operator for technical reasons, and the process received one bid. A credible competitor would therefore need to demonstrate that it can deliver evaluations in line with that methodology and make a strong quality-based case. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that the work was delivered by a smaller business; the contract’s scale was a three-year evaluation services requirement.
