Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), located in Holytown, North Lanarkshire, has awarded a contract for the "Laboratory Information Management System Annual Support & Maintenance" under the services category. The procurement was completed without prior publication of a call for competition, utilising the SG SVAR Framework SP 21 034. The awarded contract, valued at £63,000, was signed on 26th January 2026, with services to be delivered within the UKM region, specifically focusing on software licenses and maintenance renewal for the lab management system. The procurement stage is complete, following an award on 9th February 2026.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in environmental protection and IT services to explore future collaborations with government agencies like SEPA. Although the procurement was executed through a limited process, utilising pre-existing frameworks, it highlights the potential for large-scale IT suppliers to engage in public sector service renewals and support contracts. Computacenter, the awarded supplier, is a large-scale enterprise, indicating that businesses with a similar capacity to handle comprehensive IT solutions and maintenance operations might find such contracts a viable avenue for expansion and collaboration within the public sector.
