Summary of the contracting process

Registers of Scotland is buying temporary professional staffing services for a Reward Lead role. The work is a short-term call-off through the Scottish Government’s Temporary and Interim Staff (Professional) fourth-generation collaborative framework. The role is required for a few days each week, and the appointment is subject to the framework’s terms and conditions, including Schedule 5. The buyer is Registers of Scotland, based in Edinburgh; the requirement relates to its own operations. The role profile and the buyer’s invitation to quote define the detailed duties. This is personnel supply rather than a broader staffing programme or a general consultancy assignment, so suppliers should have capability to provide an appropriately experienced interim Reward Lead through the relevant professional staffing framework.

The procurement has been awarded by direct award to Venesky Brown Ltd, the supplier ranked first on the Scottish Government framework; one bid is recorded. The award date is not stated. The initial contract period runs from 24 October to 15 November 2026, with a possible extension to 23 December 2026. The awarded value for the initial term is £9,819.20 excluding VAT; the maximum potential spend if the extension is used is £19,638.40 excluding VAT. This is a single-supplier framework call-off, made without competition, rather than a competition open to all suppliers. The contract is active. No separate lots or evaluation scoring are described; selection followed the framework ranking, with the first-ranked supplier receiving the direct award.

This award shows Registers of Scotland has a requirement for a specialist interim Reward Lead, with part-time availability sufficient for a few days each week. Suppliers seeking to be credible for comparable work should be able to provide an experienced reward professional quickly and operate through the Scottish Government’s professional temporary and interim staffing framework. The route matters commercially: this call-off went to the supplier ranked first on that framework, not through a fresh competition, so framework position is central to access. The short assignment and limited weekly commitment suit agencies able to supply senior, focused interim expertise rather than a large delivery team. The requirement also involves an IR35 determination recorded as inside, making familiarity with the associated engagement and compliance arrangements relevant.
