Summary of the contracting process

Historic Environment Scotland initiated a procurement process to engage a Senior Technical Product Advisor with expertise in managing the delivery of technical products in digital research environments. This contract, falling under the "Services" category, was completed through an open procurement method with the main delivery site being in Scotland (UKM). The tender, identified by code HES/C/4310, was issued in July 2025 with submissions closing on 11th August 2025. Subsequent to the tender stage, the contract was awarded to WDOwen Associates for £54,900, with the agreement signed on 24th September 2025. The contracting process emphasised no negotiation post-award and disallowed the adoption of suppliers' terms and conditions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses experienced in providing technical advisory services, particularly those with capabilities in digital and research environments. It aligns well with SMEs, as demonstrated by the chosen supplier, WDOwen Associates, which is classified as an SME. Companies operating within the tourism, heritage, conservation, and built environment sectors are well-positioned to benefit from similar opportunities in heritage-focused procurement activities. Engaging in such contracts can provide businesses with a platform to demonstrate expertise and secure partnerships that enhance their profile and open avenues for future collaborations within the public sector.
