## Summary

Public Services Delivery Scotland (PSD Scotland), on behalf of NHS Scotland, is procuring a Service Integration and Management (SIAM) service for selected national digital services supporting health and care across Scotland. The prime contractor will provide single accountability for end-to-end delivery, service integration and performance, managing subcontractors, dependencies, Authority teams and other providers. The scope covers services and applications supporting primary and community care, national screening and child health, plus other services identified in the tender documents. Depending on the service, work may include application support, maintenance, development, infrastructure, platforms, integrations, data services and IT service management. The requirement is intended to replace arrangements under the National IT Contract and maintain continuity during transition.

The procurement has reached tender: PSD Scotland invited suppliers to submit responses electronically through a selective competitive procedure with negotiation. The tender submission deadline set was 25 September 2026 at 17:00. The contract is for an initial seven years, with options to extend by three years and then two years, giving up to 12 years in total. Its estimated value is £180 million for the full term, including extension periods. The process uses two selection stages: compliance, exclusion, financial standing and technical ability checks, followed by three mandatory case studies and six scored project-specific questions. At least three of the highest-scoring suppliers are intended to be invited to submit an initial tender, with successive reduction applied.

This opportunity suits an established technology services prime contractor able to take end-to-end responsibility for complex, business-critical NHS digital services. Suppliers need strong service integration, IT service management, application and infrastructure support, software and platform engineering, cyber security, resilience, regulatory compliance, data portability, knowledge transfer and transition capability. The successful contractor must coordinate subcontractors and other providers while working with retained Authority teams, and support later modernisation after stabilisation. Mandatory financial requirements include turnover of at least £60 million per year for the most recent three full financial years and profitability at group level over the last three years. Required or obtainable cover includes employer’s liability, public liability, professional indemnity and product liability insurance. ISO/IEC 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus certification are required.
