Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Prison Service, an executive agency of the Scottish Government based in Edinburgh, is initiating a procurement for a Custodial Management Platform (CMP). This tender is part of ongoing efforts to upgrade their ageing Prisoner Records system, which currently cannot meet modern operational requirements. The procurement falls under the services category and is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice expected by 30th September 2021. The agency is seeking to develop a cloud-based platform leveraging Agile development methodologies and open standards to enhance operational efficiency in managing prisons and Young Offender Institutions throughout Scotland.

This opportunity will allow businesses specialising in cloud-based technology, software development, and digital transformation services to compete for a significant contract. Those with expertise in Agile methodologies, microservices architecture, and open-source solutions are particularly well-suited to respond to this tender. By participating, businesses can contribute to modernising public sector systems and potentially position themselves for future contracts as the Scottish Prison Service continues to evolve its technology solutions.

Notice Title

01859 Custodial Management Platform (CMP)

Notice Description

The Scottish Prison Service is an executive agency of the Scottish Government tasked with managing prisons and Young Offender Institutions in Scotland. The current SPS Prisoner Records system is aged and reaching end of mainstream support, and cannot provide a modern digital platform to allow the SPS to transform its processes, and vastly expand it data set, to meet its strategic objectives. Through a phased replacement, the SPS wish to develop a new cloud based loosely coupled modular application through Agile development, based on micro services, open source/open standards, and cloud commodities that will transform operational processes and deliver an individualised asset based approach with those in SPS care.
