Summary of the contracting process

The Registers of Scotland has conducted an award stage procurement process for the role of a Security and Information Risk Advisor under the "CCS Non Clinical Staffing" framework. This reissued tender is noted in the services industry category and operates within Edinburgh, UK, with hybrid work conditions. The award was made to Hays Specialist Recruitment Ltd for a contract initially running from 30th March 2026 to 26th March 2027, with a potential extension up to 26th March 2028. This procurement is based on the Crown Commercial Services RM6277 Non Clinical Staffing (Lot 3) Collaborative Framework Agreement, with an emphasis on quality (80%) and price (20%). The agreement’s value without VAT is set at £166,800 for the initial term. Suppliers must adhere to a £700 maximum daily rate and demonstrate compliance with the Baseline Personnel Security Standard.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment, particularly those experienced in supplying qualified personnel for security and information risk management roles. Companies capable of delivering quality interim workers and maintaining effective security standards will find this contract suitable for business growth. The procurement restricts submissions to one company profile per agency, maintaining a competitive but manageable bid environment. Businesses with a strong experience in non-clinical staffing solutions that can operate within the defined financial and security frameworks are well-positioned to compete for such contracts. This presents an encouraging environment for new suppliers, as all submissions meeting the established criteria will be assessed fairly.
