Summary of the contracting process

The Registers of Scotland, a public sector organisation located in Edinburgh, recently completed the award stage of a procurement process titled "Award of RoS: SG IT Temporary and Interim Staff Direct Award - Developer - Supporting (Bid ID SU013)". This process falls under the services category and relates to the supply of personnel, including temporary staff. A direct award methodology was utilised, allowing the contract to be assigned to the supplier Venesky Brown Ltd without competition. The contract is valued at £119,750.40 and spans an initial duration of twelve months, with possible extensions that will not exceed the initial contract period. The job will be carried out within the UK, allowing for hybrid working conditions. The contract determination is outside IR35 regulations, and Baseline Personnel Security Standard checks are required before commencement. The award decision was based on the award criteria of 80 per cent quality and 20 per cent price.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for companies in the IT and staffing services sectors, especially those capable of providing high-quality temporary personnel under framework agreements. It is particularly suitable for firms experienced in navigating direct award contracts and handling public sector security requirements. Businesses that can offer candidates who meet the high-quality standards expected by the Registers of Scotland could see significant growth potential through this procurement. Additionally, as the incumbent supplier, Venesky Brown Ltd, demonstrates, existing relationships within public sector frameworks can provide a competitive advantage and open avenues for securing similar direct award contracts in the future.
