## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service has awarded a contract for the provision of a Kiosk Solution as part of a Proof of Concept at HMP Shotts. This procurement falls under the category of computer-related services and is located in Edinburgh, Scotland. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, and the contract was signed on 22nd February 2021, with a total value of £134,747. This project aims to evaluate the KIOSK Service over a six-month period to assess its suitability and potential for wider adoption across the organisation's establishments.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in technology solutions, particularly those with experience in computer services and kiosks. Companies that can provide innovative, effective, and scalable technology solutions will be well-positioned to compete for future contracts, particularly if the Proof of Concept yields positive results. With a focus on enhancing operational efficiency within the public sector, suppliers in the IT and software development sectors, including both established firms and new entrants, should consider engaging in this process to position themselves for further collaborations with the Scottish Prison Service.

## Notice

The SPS requires the Supplier to carry out a Proof of Concept (Test of Change) for a KIOSK Service at one of its operational Establishments for a period of six months (from the point of installation). The Supplier shall install, manage, evaluate and evidence the success of the KIOSK Service for further adoption of the technology. If successful, the SPS expects to carry out a separate procurement process for a full KIOSK service across all of its Establishments.
