This public procurement record has 1 release in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process, conducted by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS), focused on the renewal of their Project Management Software. The process was executed as a call off from the Scottish Government Framework Software Value Added Reseller (SVAR), operating under an open procurement method. This project, tagged under the industry category of 'Public order and safety', is located in the UKM region, specifically Cambuslang, with the entirety of the process reaching completion by 3rd March 2026. The SFRS was keen to replace its current system efficiently through this framework call off, which was managed by Scotland Excel but not directly involving them in contract execution. This procurement reached the award stage with a contract signed on 25th February 2026 with Computacenter (UK) Ltd, valued at £241,231.42.

This tender offers ample opportunities for businesses, particularly for those specialising in software and IT service sectors, to engage with public safety authorities like the SFRS. Large enterprises equipped with the capability to meet robust framework agreements could have significant opportunities given the nature of this procurement. Furthermore, being part of a framework agreement, such as the SVAR, provides an excellent stepping stone for suppliers to establish credibility and develop long-term relationships with public sector bodies. Suppliers who can provide value-added services and streamlined software management solutions are particularly well-suited to compete in such tenders, especially within the domain of governmental frameworks.
