The procurement process will provide Scottish Government and related public bodies with a dedicated route to manage property transactions, and its future communication regarding the opportunity is scheduled for 2 June 2021. This tender presents significant potential for businesses, particularly those specialising in surveying and real estate services, as well as SMEs and third sector organisations looking to engage with the public sector. By participating in the request for information, businesses can influence the procurement strategy and position themselves favourably for future contracting opportunities within the public market. Engaging early with the process not only enables suppliers to contribute valuable insights but can also enhance their visibility to the Scottish Government and associated public bodies. ## Notice This Prior Information Notice (PIN) seeks market advice and is not linked to a contracting opportunity.
