Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Scottish Government, located at 5 Atlantic Quay, Glasgow, focuses on the strategic assessment of the Offshore Wind Programme. This contract falls under the services category, specifically auditing services, and was awarded as of 23rd January 2026. The procurement was conducted through a direct award method, meaning it was allocated to a single supplier without a competitive process. Quo Imus Limited, trading as Qi Consulting, was granted the contract, valued at £8,910. This award reflects the contract's current active status, aligning with the government's objective to enhance the offshore wind sector.
