OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Public Services Delivery Scotland is procuring specialist training services for its workforce, focused on Video Interaction Guidance (VIG) and infant mental health. The requirement covers online delivery of bespoke VIG training and implementation support for practitioners. The successful provider will deliver two-day accredited VIG training, support for existing practitioner accreditation, advanced practitioner supervisor accreditation support, and supervision and accreditation for new practitioners. The work is delivered for PSD Scotland in Scotland, with the procurement associated with Edinburgh. The service falls within the broad category of education and training services (CPV 80000000). This opportunity is relevant to organisations that can provide VIG training and accreditation support, rather than general training providers without VIG and infant mental health expertise.

The procurement has reached tender: PSD Scotland invited suppliers to submit offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. There is one lot. Bids were required by 12 October 2026 at 13:00 UTC, with bid opening at the same time and evaluation scheduled from that point. The contract is planned to run from 16 November 2026 to 30 September 2029, with an option to extend by six months where required. Suppliers cannot submit variants, and tenders must be in English. Evaluation is weighted 70% technical quality and 30% commercial price. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. It is a services contract for a single provider covering the full training and accreditation support requirement.

This opportunity suits a provider with current VIG-UK accreditation as a trainer, supervisor and accreditor. The provider must also have expertise in infant mental health, which is the main practice area for the workforce, and be able to adapt training and implementation to practitioners’ learning and practice needs. Relevant capability includes delivering accredited VIG courses, supporting practitioners through accreditation, supervising advanced practitioners seeking supervisor accreditation, and providing supervision and accreditation support to new practitioners. The requirement is suited to an organisation with enough qualified staff and delivery capacity to provide both the initial two-day training and continuing support across the contract period. Providers without VIG-UK accreditation or specialist infant mental health experience are unlikely to be well placed.
