## Summary

The Scottish Enterprise is seeking to engage a private sector partner for its "Financial Due Diligence" procurement process. This initiative falls under the services industry category and is aimed at exploring opportunities for up to five pilot projects, which involve financial assessments of both SE-owned sites and private sector initiatives potentially financed through flexible loan arrangements. The tender period for submissions ended on 5th November 2018, with the framework intended to start on 20th November 2018 for an initial duration of 11 months, extending an additional 6 months if required. The overall value of the contract stands at £125,000.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in financial advisory services, particularly those with experience in conducting thorough financial due diligence and assessments related to capital financing. Companies that are capable of demonstrating a robust track record in delivering similar projects and have the necessary financial risk management strategies in place would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, firms committed to contributing to community benefits as expected by Scottish Enterprise will stand out in the tendering process.
