Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority is seeking tenders for the "Uplift and Transportation of Deceased Persons," which is a service procurement aimed at ensuring the dignified transport of deceased individuals across Scotland. The procurement is currently at the tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 3rd September 2020. The contract encompasses two lots: Lot 1 for reactive journeys (transporting from locus to mortuary) and Lot 2 for planned journeys to designated mortuaries. This tender employs an open procurement method, allowing any interested supplier to submit bids.

This opportunity is well-suited for funeral service providers, particularly those offering comprehensive logistical support for the transport of the deceased. Companies with experience in handling sensitive transportation services, particularly small to medium enterprises in the funeral sector, will find this tender appealing, as it aims to source diverse local suppliers, contributing positively to community engagement. Additionally, businesses that adhere to high standards of quality and actively promote social benefits through targeted recruitment and community involvement may have an advantage in the tender evaluation process.
