Summary of the contracting process

Creative Scotland commissioned a review of salaries and benefits across the arts, screen and wider creative industries sectors. The work is a professional research and advisory service intended to examine remuneration and benefits in these sectors and provide findings for the buyer. Creative Scotland is the buying organisation and is based in Glasgow. Delivery is in Scotland. This is a single service requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. The relevant business area is remuneration research, pay and benefits analysis, workforce insight, or consultancy serving cultural, screen and creative-sector organisations. The requirement is managed by Creative Scotland, a public body with a remit covering recreation, culture and religion.

The procurement reached tender: Creative Scotland invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The buyer set the submission deadline at 24 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with bid opening at the same time. The contract period is 16 September 2026 to 30 October 2026. The project budget is between £10,000 and £15,000 excluding VAT. There is one lot. Bids must be submitted in English and variants are not allowed. The evaluation and award period was scheduled to start on 24 August 2026. The contract notice identifies the requirement as a services procurement and uses CPV 79414000 for management consultancy services.

This opportunity suits consultancy firms, research practices and independent specialists with demonstrable expertise in salary benchmarking, reward strategy, employee benefits or workforce analysis. Suppliers with experience of the arts, screen, cultural and creative industries should be well placed to understand the different employment models, occupations and working conditions involved. The assignment is suited to a team that can gather and analyse remuneration evidence, assess benefits arrangements and turn findings into clear, practical advice for a public-sector cultural organisation. It may also suit smaller specialist firms or collaborative teams with relevant sector knowledge, strong analytical capability and the capacity to complete a focused review within a short delivery window.
