Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "CT - Award of Lead Solutions Architect". This procurement, identified under the code FEB549966, falls under the industry category of "General public services" and is classified with the CPV code 79600000. It is located in the region of UKM, specifically at 4 Atlantic Quay, 70 York St, Glasgow. The contract, which was awarded through an open procedure, involved the provision of services and pertains to the employment of an interim worker. The contract was signed on the 13th of February, 2026, with a total value of £178,354.00 GBP, and is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA). Harvey Nash Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Edinburgh, was awarded the contract.

This procurement presents a noteworthy business opportunity for companies specialising in IT services and personnel placement, particularly those capable of providing skilled professionals for temporary or interim roles. The procurement sought an open procedure, allowing entities of varying scales to participate. However, the award to a large-scale supplier like Harvey Nash Limited suggests that businesses with an established track record and the ability to meet substantial demands will find such opportunities advantageous. Businesses in the IT staffing domain that can deliver comprehensive solutions and exhibit competence in large-scale government contracts are well-suited to compete in similar future tenders.
