## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by The Common Services Agency (NHS National Services Scotland), focused on providing annual support for Oracle servers and storage. This contract, categorised under the health sector, was completed on 1st September 2020, under a limited procurement method without prior publication.

Key documentation related to this tender can be accessed online.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses in the IT services and support sector, particularly those with expertise in Oracle systems. Given the specific requirements and the sole-source nature of the procurement, companies that offer specialised technical support and maintenance services for Oracle products would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders. As public sector contracts often resonate within local economies, other nearby firms looking to expand their offerings in this niche market may also find this pathway advantageous.
