Summary of the contracting process

Education Scotland has awarded a contract titled "Salesforce Technical Support Services" within the education industry category, aimed at providing technical support services for Salesforce to the Scottish Ministers. The procurement process, with the identifier EDUC700, falls under the 'limited' procurement method, specifically an award without prior publication of a call for competition from a single supplier framework (SVARS). The contract, valued at £81,746.00, was signed on 12 March 2025, and the status is currently active. The services will be delivered across the United Kingdom, and the contract was officially awarded to Computacenter (UK) Limited, a large-scale supplier.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses offering Salesforce technical support, particularly those capable of subcontracting and providing specialised software support. Companies like Computacenter (UK) Limited, with substantial resources and expertise in managing complex IT services, are well-suited to compete for similar tenders. Smaller firms specialising in Salesforce support might also benefit by forming partnerships or subcontracting relationships with larger entities to participate in such frameworks. This contract can serve as a model for business opportunities within the public sector, especially in the education realm, which demands continuous and robust technical support solutions.
