## Summary

The procurement process, led by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS), involves the award of a contract for "Internet and Intranet Support". The main industry category is IT services, specifically consulting and software development, as outlined in the CPV classification 72000000. The tender period commenced on 20 November 2020 and will conclude on 19 November 2021, facilitating a one-year engagement. The contract, valued at £24,620, has been awarded to Insight Direct (UK) Ltd, following the evaluation of bids received during the planning and tender stages.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those offering website maintenance, server hosting, and content management solutions, like Joomla CMS support. Companies aiming to strengthen their presence in the public sector and those with the capacity to deliver robust digital solutions would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders of this nature, fostering growth through public sector contracts.

## Notice

The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) runs both an Internet and Intranet website to support its external and internal communications and publishing needs. COPFS requires a Service Provider to support the operation and maintenance of both websites, including professional services, and to provide server hosting for the external facing internet website as well as migrate it from the current hosting provider. Both websites run using Joomla CMS software, enabling COPFS staff to easily add and amend website content without requiring technical support. The outward facing (Internet) website is hosted by the Service Provider, whereas the internal Intranet site is hosted on COPFS' own network and infrastructure.
