## Summary

The Common Services Agency, also known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), has recently completed a procurement process titled "Professional Design Team Service." This process, conducted in the health industry sector, took place in Edinburgh, Scotland, with the final contract awarded on 10 December 2019. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, aimed at accelerating the delivery of essential estates improvement projects that needed to be completed before the end of the financial year. The contract is valued at £122,730 GBP.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in professional design services, including contract administration, building surveying, cost consultancy, principal design, and building services engineering. Companies with experience in working with the public sector and a strong track record in managing similar design projects will be particularly well-suited for future opportunities arising from NSS's ongoing operational needs. The demand for technical design support in public estate improvements may open avenues for growth for firms ready to collaborate promptly on public service enhancements.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

National Services Scotland have provided necessary funding to Facilities Management to undertake essential improvements to our portfolio of properties. All of these properties have building fabric and assets out of lifecycle which require full repair or replacement. To deliver the design, procurement and subsequent works before the end of the financial year we require the support of a professional technical design team. At this time Facilities Management do not have the resource and technical competences within the department therefore we have been in direct contact with Avison Young to deliver these services. Avison Young have supported Facilities Management regularly over recent years which means they are well informed on our property detail and can start immediately.

### Procurement Information

To deliver the design, procurement and subsequent works before the end of the financial year we require the support of a professional technical design team. Competition from CCSRM3816 would take approximately 6 weeks which would be too long and not allow time for the work to be completed
