OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is currently engaged in a procurement process for a Software Reseller project. This initiative falls within the services industry category, specifically involving commercial off-the-shelf software and associated support services, aimed at public sector and third sector bodies in Scotland. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with a contract value of £279.6 million and an active duration of 1650 days, having been signed on 21 March 2022. An important recent amendment has extended the framework due to the need for additional time to complete the re-procurement strategy, resulting in a new framework end date of 31 January 2023.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly those providing commercial off-the-shelf software, support, and related value-added services. Companies that focus on IT services, software development, or those with the capability to deliver comprehensive package solutions would be ideally suited to compete for this contract. The procurement process is structured to ensure a continuous supply of services without interruption, making it vital for potential suppliers to act swiftly and remain engaged as re-procurement timelines are expected to be announced imminently.
