PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Disclosure Scotland bought a one-year renewal of its Lucid subscription, a software subscription within the software package category (CPV 48218000). The requirement covers a single subscription for use by Disclosure Scotland at its 1 Pacific Quay premises in Glasgow. This is a focused software renewal rather than a wider digital workplace implementation or a multi-item supply. The contracting process was conducted by Disclosure Scotland, which is also the organisation using the subscription. The requirement was placed as a call-off from the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions 2 framework, so the purchase sits within that established digital workplace procurement route.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Softcat. It was a single-lot requirement, evaluated through an open procedure, with one bid recorded. The contract was signed on 15 September 2026 and is active. The contract value is £24,630. The subscription is for a one-year renewal; no separate award date or contract start and end dates are recorded. The call-off was made against the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions 2 framework. The available process information identifies the subscription requirement but does not set out additional eligibility thresholds or evaluation weightings.

For suppliers seeking to compete for a future renewal of this specific requirement, the relevant capability is supplying and renewing the Lucid software subscription for Disclosure Scotland. The purchase was a single, defined subscription rather than a broad software transformation, so credibility is most directly associated with the ability to provide the required subscription through an appropriate public-sector purchasing route. This award was made through the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions 2 framework, making framework access and call-off readiness commercially relevant to suppliers pursuing the same requirement. The recorded competition attracted one bid and the selected supplier was Softcat. Suppliers should therefore assess whether they can deliver this narrowly scoped renewal on the buyer’s established framework route, rather than relying on adjacent digital workplace services as a substitute for the subscription itself.
