Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government procured one interim project manager specialising in information management systems. The requirement was for a professional to manage an information management system project, rather than for the system itself. It was classified as a personnel supply service (CPV 79620000) and formed one lot. The contracting description identifies this as an award against the national Interim Professional Staff Services framework. The Scottish Government is the buyer. The delivery location is identified only as Scotland, without a more specific place. This is a focused requirement for an individual project-management specialist, not a broader team or a general information technology services package.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Harvey Nash Limited. The contract is active and was signed on 7 October 2026, with a stated value of £270,000. The award record gives no separate award date or contract-period dates or duration. The route was an open procedure and the requirement was arranged as one lot for a single interim specialist. The award was made through the Interim Professional Staff Services – National framework. Four bids were recorded for the lot. The procurement data does not describe the evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements, so the award basis cannot be characterised beyond the recorded procedure and framework route.

For suppliers of interim project-management professionals, this award demonstrates demand from the Scottish Government for a single specialist to manage an information management system project, sourced through its national Interim Professional Staff Services framework. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to provide an individual with relevant project-management capability and experience in information management systems, with capacity to take on an interim assignment. The award went to a large supplier, showing that an established staffing provider competed successfully; however, the recorded information does not state specific qualifications, accreditations or prior experience requirements. Four bids were received, indicating competition for the requirement. Firms supplying individual interim specialists through the framework are the closest fit, rather than suppliers offering a wider technology implementation or software package.
