## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service (SPS) recently completed a procurement process for the provision of tamper-proof evidence bags and associated products, such as paper bags and evidence tubes. This procurement, identified as contract SPS-02200, focused on goods within the security bags category (CPV code 35121400). The process was conducted under an open procedure, covered by the GPA agreement, and utilized electronic submissions. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, with a contract actively awarded to WA Products (UK) Limited t/a SceneSafe. Key dates include the contract signing on 16th October 2025. The procurement was managed from Edinburgh, Scotland (UKM75), by SPS, a national agency dedicated to public order and safety.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses within the security goods sector, especially those capable of providing customised and varied product sizes with specific technical features such as unique numbering sequences for tamper-proof requirements. Given its focus on quality and price, companies with strong technical capabilities and competitive pricing strategies, including small and medium-sized enterprises, are well-positioned to engage in similar future contracts. Businesses involved in producing or supplying security-related goods will find such tenders particularly advantageous for gaining foothold and demonstrating value in public procurement markets.
