Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority procured renewal licences for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and Enterprise Application Platform with Management. This is an enterprise software licensing and application-platform requirement supporting Police Scotland’s technology operations. Delivery was for Police Scotland at Clyde Gateway, 2 French Street, Glasgow. The purchase was managed by the Scottish Police Authority as a central purchasing body. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and formed one lot. It was run as a mini-competition under the HealthTrust Europe ICT Solutions 2023 Digital Technology Framework Agreement, also known as the ComIT 3 – Complete IT 3 Framework. The relevant classification is CPV 72261000, software support services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Softcat Plc. It used an open procedure as a mini-competition under the HealthTrust Europe ICT Solutions 2023 Digital Technology Framework Agreement. The contract is active, with a value of £53,605.50. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026. One bid was recorded for the lot, and it was submitted electronically; the recorded bidder was not an SME. The award covered the single lot for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and Enterprise Application Platform with Management licence renewal. The available outcome information identifies Softcat Plc as the selected supplier. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award indicates demand from the Scottish Police Authority for specialist enterprise application-platform licensing and management products in a policing environment. Suppliers well placed for comparable requirements would need established capability in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, including licence renewal, management components and continuity of support for operational systems. Experience supplying public-sector or other highly controlled organisations would help demonstrate credibility, alongside the capacity to manage framework-based mini-competitions and deliver software services to Police Scotland in Glasgow. The single recorded bid and selection of a large technology supplier suggest that relevant product expertise, access to the required licensing route and the ability to provide dependable enterprise support are important competitive factors for future requirements from this buyer.
