Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service procured specialist IT technical training for key staff in its Change and Digital Innovation Business Unit. The training supports a technology upgrade programme covering migration from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and from Office 2016 to Microsoft 365. This is a professional training service rather than a software supply or general IT support requirement. The buyer is a Scottish public sector courts and tribunals organisation, acting as a central purchasing body. The requirement was classified as computer-user training services (CPV 80533200) and was delivered for the service’s operational technology programme in Scotland. It comprised one lot covering the complete training requirement, with no options included.

The procurement has been awarded and the single lot is complete. It used an open procedure. QA Limited was selected as supplier, and the contract is active. The contract value is £100,000. The contract was signed on 11 February 2026. One bid was received, submitted electronically; it came from outside the European Union and was not from an SME. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The published outcome records the award to QA Limited against the full training requirement. The contract period is not stated in the available outcome data, so the signature date and active contract status are the key timing indicators for this completed procurement.

This outcome demonstrates established demand for specialist technical training within the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service, particularly where a public organisation is undertaking a desktop and productivity-platform upgrade. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need trainers able to support Windows 10 to Windows 11 migration and Microsoft 365 adoption, while tailoring delivery to key staff in a Change and Digital Innovation environment. Relevant suppliers are likely to be organisations with substantial delivery capacity, experience of structured technical training for public sector or similarly complex organisations, and the ability to provide a complete service rather than isolated courses. The single-lot route indicates that the buyer has previously sought one provider for the overall requirement.
