Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by the Scottish Government, headquartered at 4 Atlantic Quay, 70 York St, Glasgow, UK, culminated in the award of a contract titled "CT - Award of Data Officer" in the services industry category. The main procurement activity involves acquiring one interim worker. The procurement process adopted an open procedure under the "General public services" sector, classified under CPV code 79600000. The contract, valued at £7,700, was signed on 12th May 2025, indicating completion of the award stage. This government procurement was primarily aimed at fulfilling interim IT staff services at the national level, with services to be delivered in the UKM region.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for large businesses specialising in IT staffing services, who can provide interim data officers. With the contract already awarded to Lorien Resourcing Ltd, based in Edinburgh, opportunities for similar future contracts may arise. Although small and medium enterprises (SMEs) did not participate in this specific tender process, businesses looking to expand their footprint in public sector IT services should be vigilant for similar open procurement opportunities issued by the Scottish Government, which often calls for specialised interim staffing solutions.
