## Summary

The Scottish Government is currently in the award phase of the procurement process for the contract titled "Award of Interim Professional Staff." This service procurement is aimed at reviewing various development programmes funded by the International Development Fund, focusing predominantly on regions including South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. The tender period began on 16th August 2017 and concluded on 29th September 2017. The contract awarded under this process, valued at £10,050, reflects the commitment to engaging consultants in management and other advisory roles to facilitate efficient programme assessment.
