Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the e-Financials Support & Maintenance contract was conducted by Registers of Scotland, a central purchasing body based in Edinburgh, UK. This procurement falls under the public services industry category and is complete, having reached the award stage, with the contract signed on 1st April 2019. The contract value is £160,582.79, and it was procured through a limited method without prior publication of a call for competition. The delivery location for this service is at Meadowbank House, Edinburgh, with the procurement focusing on support and maintenance services for an integrated IT system.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in IT maintenance, particularly those with experience in financial systems integration. Given the nature of the procurement, the ideal competitors would be large-scale providers who can offer specific expertise in maintaining such specialised systems, as well as those who have previous relationships with Registers of Scotland. The lack of competition for technical reasons means that potential suppliers will need to demonstrate their capability to support and upgrade the existing system effectively.
