## Summary

Transport Scotland is seeking consultants through a tender for a Multiple Supplier Framework Agreement for Insurance Advisory services, primarily focused on supporting trunk road projects across Scotland. The procurement process is currently at the award stage, with an anticipated contract value of £450,000. The deadline for submissions was 23 March 2018, with services expected to commence in accordance with project needs. The Framework Agreement will be based on a restricted procedure, allowing selected economic operators to provide qualified personnel for advisory services at various stages of road project development and construction.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in insurance consulting, particularly those with experience in infrastructure and transport projects. Companies that have expertise in financial risk management, insurance policies for construction, and compliance with Scottish regulations will be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, firms that can demonstrate a successful track record in similar large-scale projects should consider participating, as their knowledge will be critical in providing effective services to Transport Scotland and ensuring regulatory compliance throughout project execution.

## Notice

Transport Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Ministers has an on-going requirement to appoint suitably experienced Economic Operators ("consultants") to provide specialist advice services relating to insurances to support the procurement, development, construction, commissioning, operational and delivery stages of trunk road projects across Scotland. The procurement of these services will help to ensure Scottish Ministers are adequately insured in accordance with relevant regulation and requirements in relation to the various project development and execution stages. It is anticipated that these services will be predominantly in relation to Scotland's trunk road network, but could extend to the railways and other parts of the transport system.
