Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government bought software development services to modernise and migrate its Parliamentary Questions Tracker to Microsoft Azure. The requirement was a single package of work, classified as software consultancy and development (CPV 72222300). The Scottish Government was the buyer, and the work was for its Parliamentary Questions Tracker. The delivery location is identified as Scotland. This opportunity is relevant to suppliers with experience in developing and modernising software and migrating applications to Microsoft Azure, particularly those able to work on a public-sector system used to track parliamentary questions.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Servent was selected for the work, and the contract was signed on 7 October 2026. Its value is £80,000. The procurement used an open procedure, with the award made against the G-Cloud 14 framework. There was one bid for the single lot. The contract covers modernisation and migration of the Parliamentary Questions Tracker to Microsoft Azure; no contract-period dates are provided in the published details. The recorded value relates to the contract with Servent. The process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award shows that the Scottish Government has bought software modernisation and migration to Microsoft Azure for its Parliamentary Questions Tracker, using the G-Cloud 14 framework route. A supplier competing for a similar requirement would need credible software development capability and the ability to migrate an existing application to Azure while modernising it. Experience delivering comparable work for a public-sector buyer would be directly relevant to demonstrating fit. The award went to Servent, a large supplier, and the process attracted one bid. That provides a signal of the supplier profile and competition seen in this procurement, rather than evidence that the requirement was split across multiple lots.
