Summary of the contracting process

Social Security Scotland has concluded a procurement process for the provision of Security Information and Event Management & Logging Monitoring and Alerting Licences. Classified under the general public services category, this contract encompasses services essential for the operational security of the buying organisation. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with the overall contract valued at £335,175.80, awarded to Computacenter. Located in Dundee, Social Security Scotland entered the awarding stage with the contract signed on 20th February 2025, without an extension beyond its one-year period.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity, particularly for firms specialising in IT security services and software management solutions. Organisations adept at providing robust solutions in security information and event management can leverage this opportunity to establish or expand their footprint within the public sector. While the primary contract was awarded to a large supplier, subcontracting arrangements indicate potential engagement opportunities for smaller firms or niche specialists involved in the relevant software, exemplified by the involvement of Elastic as the software provider. The contract aligns well with businesses focused on securing and managing data integrity, offering a viable growth avenue through collaboration or direct service provision.
