Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government commissioned a research and consultancy project for its Building Standards Division. The work reviews Key Performance Outcome 5 in the Performance Framework for Verifiers, alongside information collected through the Resource and Investment Exercise. It is intended to support recommendations for revising KPO5 and its associated reporting requirements. The recommendations should improve the consistency, accuracy and usefulness of financial and performance data, helping the Scottish Government monitor performance, make decisions and develop future building warrant fee models. This is a public-sector performance, financial-data and regulatory research requirement, classified under CPV 73000000 for research and development services and related consultancy services. The work is associated with the Scottish Government’s building standards functions in Scotland.

The procurement has reached the awarded stage. It was run as a tender for services, and the award went to Navigator Insight Ltd of Leicester. The awarded contract value is £28,430. Three bids were recorded. The award covers the review of KPO5, analysis of Resource and Investment Exercise information, and recommendations on performance and financial reporting. The stated evaluation basis is reflected in the requirement for recommendations that improve data consistency, accuracy and usefulness and support performance monitoring, decision-making and future building warrant fee modelling. The award is linked to an active contract. No separate award date or contract duration is stated in the procurement outcome.

This requirement demonstrates demand for specialist research and consultancy that can examine public-sector performance frameworks, assess financial and performance information, and turn findings into practical reporting recommendations. Relevant suppliers would need to understand how performance measures operate in a regulatory or public-service setting, including the implications of inconsistent or inaccurate data for monitoring and management decisions. Credible competitors would also need analytical capability across the information gathered through a resource and investment exercise, and the ability to produce clear recommendations for revising a key performance outcome and its reporting requirements. Experience connecting performance evidence with financial modelling, particularly in building standards or building warrant fee contexts, would be directly relevant to future work for this buyer.
