Summary of the contracting process

Disclosure Scotland commissioned Sage X3 finance software and support services. The requirement covers services to support its finance project, including the provision and support of Sage X3 software. Delivery is for Disclosure Scotland in Glasgow. The buying organisation is a public body and also acts as a central purchasing body. The service is classified under CPV 79211000 for accounting services, with an additional classification of 48443000 for accounting software packages. The requirement was arranged as one lot covering Sage software and support services. This is relevant to suppliers providing Sage X3 implementation, configuration, maintenance, technical support or related finance systems services for public sector organisations, particularly those able to work with Disclosure Scotland’s Glasgow operation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open procedure. It was a call-off from the Government Commercial Agency’s G-Cloud 14 framework, using Lots 1 to 3. X3 Consulting Limited was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and has an active status. Its value is £546,735. The lot includes an extension option of up to a maximum additional period of 24 months. One bid was recorded, submitted electronically by an SME. The available outcome shows a completed award to X3 Consulting Limited; the procurement was evaluated through the stated framework and open-procedure route. The requirement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award signals demand from Disclosure Scotland for specialist Sage X3 finance software and support rather than a general IT service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable Sage X3 capability, including finance-system implementation or support, technical problem resolution, software maintenance and an understanding of public-sector finance operations. Experience of delivering reliable support to an established public body would strengthen a supplier’s position, as would the capacity to provide continuing services and manage a possible extended requirement. The procurement was handled through the G-Cloud 14 framework, so suppliers targeting similar work should understand framework call-off processes and the relevant service lots. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that specialist smaller firms can compete for this type of requirement.
