The procurement falls under the research and development services sector and has a total contract value of £650,000. Located in Glasgow, this open procedure tender is at the tender stage with a submission deadline set for 28 June 2022 at 12:00 PM. The contract has a duration of 720 days and includes provisions for renewal. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, construction equipment, and consultancy services. Companies capable of innovating within the fields of technology and building standards compliance will be well-suited to participate. The openness of the challenge is designed to encourage collaboration and innovation, making it particularly appealing for small to medium enterprises looking to grow and contribute solutions that enhance public sector efficiencies. ## Notice In any small construction project there is a requirement to have the work inspected by the local authority building standards team. These inspections help to ensure that the build is compliant with statutory standards and safe. These visits are requested by a notification from the Citizen/Contractor managing the build. Often these notifications are received too late in the build or not at all, resulting in additional costs, time, stress & the owners being unable to occupy their building legally. How can we use Tech to solve this, and provide data to support all parties in identifying common points of failure?

CivTech brings together public sector expertise and private sector innovation to solve real problems, develop new products, and deliver better, faster and easier services for everyone. Central to the approach is co-production with the citizen. Part of the Scottish Government's Digital Directorate, CivTech's approach is helping transform public sector engagement with tech and innovation, delivering significant benefits to public services, producing genuine uplifts for the Scottish economy - and along the way, making lives better. Across the country there are problems public sector organisations would like to solve and in the current environment the need for smart, efficient and effective products has never been greater. The Scottish Government is aware innovation is a good way to create them and is committed to ensuring a large part of its tech spend goes to smaller, innovative businesses. This is where CivTech comes in. The CivTech Innovation Flow is designed to create products as quickly and effectively as possible, and uses a true Accelerator model at the heart of its Innovation Flow model. For you - whether you're an individual, team or company - it's an opportunity to take on a Challenge , solve it, and win contracts with a blue-chip public sector organisation. You'll build a product, and a business to take it as far as possible. Because here's the kicker: the Challenges we issue aren't 'single organisation' problems - most exist worldwide. In short: Open Challenges are set. Any organisation, team or individual can respond. Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage which runs from the 15th of August to the 2nd of September 2022, where they are then developed further [and for which participating applicants are paid]. The best go through to the Accelerator - a period of intensive work to create the solution, and through CivTech's unique business workshop system, a business capable of taking the product to the world. The Accelerator Stage will run from the 3rd of October 2022 to the 28th of January 2023.
