Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government is conducting an open tender for the provision of a Nursery Service on Client Premises at Victoria Quay, Edinburgh, covering the period from 2020 to 2025. This procurement process seeks a service provider to operate a workplace nursery for the children of government staff. The submission deadline for bids is set for 8 April 2020, with the awarded contract expected to be formalised shortly after. The invitation to tender specifically pertains to services under the general public services category, and the project is based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in childcare and nursery services. Companies that have experience working under concession contracts, along with those capable of managing compliance with regulatory frameworks such as that of the Care Inspectorate, will find themselves well-positioned to compete effectively. The nursery service is expected to collect fees directly from parents, offering further financial viability for bidders who can demonstrate a robust business model and a commitment to high standards of care.
