Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government is currently seeking bids for the "Support and Maintenance of Laboratory Information Management System" under an open procurement method. This process has been initiated on 12th February 2018 and is at the tender stage, with bids due by 5th March 2018. The contract is valued at £100,000 and involves providing support for their existing LabWare LIMS v7 accessed by users in Aberdeen and Pitlochry. The primary location for the services is the Marine Laboratory in Aberdeen, although the LIMS is hosted on a server in Edinburgh.

This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory information management systems or IT support services to expand their client base. Companies that have the technical competence to maintain Labware LIMS or similar systems, as well as those with experience in governmental contracts, would be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, businesses that can ensure compliance with stringent quality management procedures will likely have an advantage in the bidding process.
