## Summary

The Scottish Government has successfully completed the tender process for the "Award for Digital Transformation Division - Strategic Partner," aimed at sourcing a strategic partner for its Digital Transformation Division. This procurement, classified under "services" and specifically targeting digital technology services, was conducted using a selective procurement method, adhering to the restricted procedure. The process took place in Edinburgh, with a total contract value of £1,500,000, and the contract was signed on 19 December 2019. The initial invitation for bids resulted in nine submissions, highlighting competitive interest in this project.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in digital technology services and transformation projects, particularly those experienced in collaboration with governmental bodies.
