Summary of the contracting process

Highlands and Islands Enterprise is conducting a public procurement process for the "Data Protection Services Framework" aimed at ensuring compliance with the General Data Protection Regulations and supporting the Data Protection Act 2018. This framework is intended for use by HIE and several other organisations including South of Scotland Enterprise and Wave Energy Scotland. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, having been completed recently, with the services set to commence in December 2020 for an initial contract duration of two years, potentially extendable for two additional one-year terms. The estimated budget for this framework over its maximum duration is £352,500, of which £191,000 is allocated for the initial two years. The procurement method used is an open procedure.

This opportunity presents a significant avenue for business growth, particularly for SMEs specialising in data protection and compliance services. Companies offering expertise in data protection, risk assessment, and regulatory consultancy will be well placed to compete for this framework, especially those capable of adopting the role of Data Protection Officer and providing comprehensive advisory services. Given the collaborative nature of the framework involving multiple suppliers, businesses may also consider partnerships or consortia to enhance their service offerings and bid competitiveness.
