This procurement falls under the services category, with an estimated value of £35 million. The planning stage is currently underway, and the contract is expected to create significant opportunities in Scotland, particularly with a "Meet the Buyer" day scheduled for September/October 2018. Stakeholders interested in participating should register their interest via the Public Contracts Scotland website to obtain further details. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in electronic monitoring technology, including those involved in the installation, maintenance, and monitoring of such systems. Enterprises with expertise in radio frequency technology, global positioning systems, and alcohol monitoring solutions would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. As the need for effective offender monitoring and rehabilitation continues to grow, businesses capable of offering innovative, reliable solutions will find immense potential for growth in this sector. ## Notice The Scottish Ministers are seeking to establish a managed service contract for Electronic Monitoring of Offenders to support the criminal and Youth Justice Systems in Scotland. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Scottish Ministers are seeking to establish a managed service contract for Electronic Monitoring of Offenders to support the criminal and Youth Justice Systems in Scotland. Electronic Monitoring, also called "tagging" allows justice personnel to quickly and easily confirm that an offender is at a specified location when he or she is required to be present or away from a location they are not allowed to be present at. When an offender is placed in an electronic monitoring programme, a tamper resistant electronic device is attached to his or her wrist or ankle. The device transmits an electronic signal indicating whether the offender has had any unauthorised absences, attendance at restricted locations or has tampered with the device. The service provider will be responsible for the installation, maintenance and removal of all necessary equipment and for the monitoring of offenders placed in an electronic monitoring programme, which may cover: (1) radio frequency technology, which has been used in Scotland for a number of years, and subject to the passing of the Management of Offenders (Scotland) Bill, (2) global positioning system monitoring technology and/or (3) alcohol monitoring technology.

We intend to hold a Meet the Buyer day for interested parties in September/ October 2018. All of those who note an interest via this PIN notice will be invited to attend the event. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR316499 | | Notice type | OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Apr 2018 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 31 Jan 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £35,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH6 6QQ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Leith | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh North and Leith | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services ### Codes - 75231200 - Services related to the detention or rehabilitation of criminals ## Release History - 11 Apr 2018 at 00:00 - Planning - OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR316499 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=APR316499&idx=4 17th October 2018 - A table showing the number of visits/calls/reports, broken down by month, for this calendar year. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=APR316499&idx=3 17th October 2018 - Please find attached details of the questions raised at the event. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=APR316499&idx=2 15th October 2018 - Please find attached some links to additional information requested at the Supplier Event. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=APR316499&idx=1 15th October 2018 - Please find attached the slides from the Supplier Event last week. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR316499 Electronic Monitoring of Offenders - The Scottish Ministers are seeking to establish a managed service contract for Electronic Monitoring of Offenders to support the criminal and Youth Justice Systems in Scotland. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.parliament.scot/parliamentarybusiness/Bills/107731.aspx - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=537077 - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000537077 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
