OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process pertains to the provision of travel services, specifically the supply of train tickets for the Scotrail network, managed by Public Health Scotland. This limited procurement was initiated without a prior call for competition due to technical reasons, as Abellio is the sole provider on the Scottish rail network. The award was made on April 1, 2020, with the contract valued at £300,000. Situated in Edinburgh, the buying organisation emphasises services within the health sector, making it vital for stakeholders to pay attention to any future opportunities that may arise in the area.

This tender represents a considerable opportunity for companies that specialise in travel and transport services, along with those able to provide ancillary services linked to rail transport. Although the competition was limited in this instance, businesses with expertise in similar sectors should be prepared to engage with Public Health Scotland for upcoming contracts, particularly those that can demonstrate the ability to deliver unique or specialised travel solutions. Strong communication with the contracting authority could also be beneficial for those looking to navigate similar procurement processes in the future.
