Summary of the contracting process

Disclosure Scotland commissioned front-end development services for its operations in Glasgow. The requirement is for a Front-End Developer, with delivery at Disclosure Scotland, 1 Pacific Quay, Glasgow. The buying organisation is Disclosure Scotland, acting as a central purchasing body. This is a services requirement for interim IT staffing, delivered through the Scottish Government Interim IT Staff Framework. The work is therefore relevant to businesses that provide front-end development personnel for public-sector assignments, particularly suppliers able to support an organisation’s digital services from Glasgow. The procurement concerns one requirement rather than a broad programme of IT services, with the stated service focused specifically on front-end development. Its CPV classification is 79620000, covering the supply of personnel including temporary staff.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. ASA Recruitment Ltd was selected for the Front-End Developer requirement. The contract was signed on 5 June 2026 and has a value of £252,000. The buyer used an open procedure as a call-off from the Scottish Government Interim IT Staff Framework, also described as the Framework Agreement for Interim IT Staff Services – National. The requirement was a single lot. The buyer may extend the arrangement by up to a maximum of 17 months. Nine bids were received, including three from small and medium-sized enterprises; all nine bids were submitted electronically. The award was evaluated through the framework call-off process, with no separate evaluation criteria stated here.

For suppliers that did not win, this award provides a clear example of Disclosure Scotland’s demand for dedicated front-end development capability through its interim IT staffing route. Businesses best placed for a future requirement would be able to provide an experienced front-end developer for a public-sector assignment and operate effectively within the Scottish Government Interim IT Staff Framework or a comparable call-off environment. The competition attracted nine electronic bids, including bids from three SMEs, showing that the opportunity was accessible to smaller specialist staffing businesses as well as larger providers. A credible competitor would need a reliable supply of suitable digital professionals, the ability to manage an individual interim placement, and the administrative capacity to respond to a formal framework call-off for Disclosure Scotland.
