OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority bought the supply and delivery of industrial freezers: double-door cabinet freezers and single-door cabinet freezers. This is a goods requirement for commercial refrigeration equipment, rather than freezer servicing or installation work. The stated delivery areas are in Scotland. The requirement is for two cabinet types within one procurement, so suppliers need to be able to provide both configurations or otherwise meet the buyer’s combined requirement. The Authority is based in Glasgow.

The procurement has been awarded to Nisbets Limited, and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 21 January 2026 and has a stated duration of 360 days. Its recorded value is £59,999. The Authority’s modification notice says the contract value is being increased so the existing supply can continue while a replacement procurement is in progress; it says the change does not extend the contract term or materially alter its nature or scope. No award date or evaluation basis is recorded in the supplied process information.

This award demonstrates demand from the Scottish Police Authority for industrial cabinet freezers in both double-door and single-door formats, with supply and delivery to Scottish locations. Suppliers that can offer both types and reliably deliver them across the stated areas would be closest to the requirement when it returns to market. The current arrangement was modified to maintain continuity of supply while a replacement procurement is in progress, indicating that uninterrupted supply is important to the buyer. The contract is a single combined requirement, so a credible competitor would need to meet the Authority’s needs across both freezer configurations rather than rely on capability in only one type.
