## Summary

The Scottish Government is currently involved in the procurement process for the "LS/CMI System Centralisation and Support" project, which falls under the services category and pertains to the public sector. The procurement has reached the award stage, and the contract was signed on 18th February 2021, with a total value of £642,000. This contract aims to centralise and support the LS/CMI system, used for risk assessment in offender management across Scotland. The project's designated delivery location is Edinburgh, UK. The procurement method employed is a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the ongoing nature of the project and the necessity for continuity carried out by the current supplier, NVT Computing Limited.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses focused on technology services, particularly those specialising in software development, system integration, and IT support within the public sector. Companies that have experience with offender management systems or related technologies will be well-suited to compete for future tenders or extensions of this contract, particularly given the specificity of the services required and the ongoing support anticipated. SMEs in the tech industry may find this contract particularly relevant, aligning with their capacity to fulfil specialised service roles effectively.

### Procurement Information

The Scottish Government intends to award this contract under the provision given in The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulation 2015. Regulation 33.1.b. The LS/CMI Centralisation Project has been ongoing for some time and substantial progress had been made before the project was delayed by the impact of Covid-19. IT Architects have highlighted significant concerns regarding the successful completion of the project if it were to be transferred to an alternative supplier at this stage. LS/CMI currently utilises the PSN (Public Service Network) but this is due to be decommissioned and partners have been given cessation dates. It is essential that this project is finalised before partners cease to use the PSN or a substantial amount of work already completed will require to be repeated.
