## Summary

Scottish Enterprise, a regional agency located in Glasgow, has initiated the procurement process for its Workplace Innovation Leadership Development Programme, classified under business and management consultancy services (CPV: 79400000). As of 28 May 2026, two contracts related to this programme have been concluded. The procurement follows an open procedure method, with the framework agreement anticipated to begin on 6 April 2026 and potentially extend to a maximum of 48 months. The tender consists of four lots, including "Transformational Leadership" and "Innovating Leadership: AI, Data and Emerging Technology." Notably, Connect Three Solutions and Elevator have been awarded the contracts for the first and second lots, valued at £705,000 and £165,000 respectively. The framework will deliver these programs across the Scottish Enterprise area and may be in collaboration with other enterprise agencies in Scotland.

This open procurement presents an ideal growth opportunity for businesses specialising in leadership development, business consultancy, and strategic innovations. The focus on leadership in specific contexts, such as AI integration and geopolitical challenges, provides a unique platform for niche consultancies to showcase their expertise. Ideal candidates are those businesses with a proven track record in consultancy, the capability to deliver hybrid programme formats, and an inclination for cultivating leadership aligned with emerging technology and economic shifts. This procurement allows such entities to expand their reach within Scotland and potentially collaborate with other local enterprises to deliver high-impact leadership programmes tailored to diverse business needs.
