As part of an HR Transformation Programme, a new Applicant Tracking System (ATS) has been selected and tested to which will provide hiring managers with 24/7 access to real time reporting and will improve the hiring process. The ATS system provided by iCIMS went live in December 2021. The HR Transformation Programme has also identified that the current method for HR Assessments and Associated services can be modernised and therefore have a requirement for a supplier to provide a digital platform providing assessments that applicants are able to complete online and in their own time thus removing the current requirement for applicants to book and attend assessment days. The new system will be required to integrate with the ATS system to provide a simple, one-stop shop user friendly experience for applicants. This will be advertised as a single supplier contract opportunity. The supplier will be required to provide assessment and related services relating to the recruitment and internal vacancy filling including our Graduate Development Programme on behalf of the Scottish Government Directorates, Agencies and Non-Ministerial Offices. The contract will be for a period of 18 months with the option to extend for up to an additional 12 months. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/024327-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 31 Aug 2022 | | Submission deadline | 25 Apr 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Aug 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,250,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Unsuccessful | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Unsuccessful | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | GLASGOW | | Post town | Glasgow | | Postcode | G2 8EA | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM32 Glasgow City | | Local authority | Glasgow City | | Electoral ward | Anderston/City/Yorkhill | | Westminster constituency | Glasgow North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 48100000 - Industry specific software package - 48450000 - Time accounting or human resources software package - 72212450 - Time accounting or human resources software development services - 72222300 - Information technology services - 79600000 - Recruitment services - 79635000 - Assessment centre services for recruitment ## Release History - 31 Aug 2022 at 14:27 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/024327-2022 - 18 Mar 2022 at 16:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007460-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2343 - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000686505 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA10482 - https://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
