Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority procured a media management software solution. The system is intended to ensure that all interaction with the media can be logged and audited, supporting controlled record-keeping and oversight of communications activity. The procurement is categorised as goods and falls within the broad information technology software category (CPV 48000000). The Scottish Police Authority is the public-sector buyer and a central purchasing body, based at Dalmarnock in Glasgow. The requirement was arranged as one lot and relates to the Authority’s own media-management needs. The successful supplier provides a software-based solution rather than physical equipment, construction or general media services.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through an open procedure under the Media Services Framework, Lot 2. The contract was awarded to Access Intelligence Media and Communications Limited, trading as Vuelio, an SME. The contract is active and was signed on 4 September 2026 for £159,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The process concerned a single lot, which is also complete. One bid was recorded, and it was submitted electronically. The available outcome information records the selected supplier and contract value; the procurement data does not set out a separate award date, contract end date or detailed scoring criteria. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award demonstrates demand from a Scottish public-sector policing body for software that gives a complete, auditable record of media interactions. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would have a proven media-management or communications-monitoring platform, with reliable logging, audit trails, searchable records and controls suitable for public-sector use. Credible competitors should be able to show that their system supports accountable handling of communications activity and can be implemented and supported as an operational business application. Experience supplying public bodies, working through framework arrangements and delivering secure, dependable software would strengthen a supplier’s position. The recorded competition also shows that a focused specialist SME can meet this type of requirement.
