This procurement, classified under CPV code 66110000 for banking and investment services, caters to general public services in the regions of Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire, and Inverness (UKM50). The procurement followed an open procedure and was accelerated due to its re-tendering nature. The contract, which was awarded to Clydesdale Bank PLC, was signed on 19th December 2024 and has a total value of GBP 1,032,779. The contract includes options for extension, potentially lasting up to an additional 24 months.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for entities in the banking sector, particularly those capable of offering high-quality financial services to regional authorities. Large banking institutions, given their comprehensive service offerings and extensive resources, would be particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts.
