## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service is leading a procurement process titled "Supply of PLC Equipment and SCADA License Keys (Various Establishments)" aimed at enhancing public order and safety. The contract is currently complete and focuses on supplying spare PLC equipment and SCADA software to various establishments, reducing downtime when existing equipment fails. The successful bid, valued at £36,928.31, was awarded to Westmont Systems on 12th March 2021. The procurement procedure was conducted as an open tender, and the delivery addresses are primarily located within the UK.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), particularly those specialising in electronic equipment and software solutions for security and operational systems. Businesses with expertise in PLC and SCADA technologies will be particularly well-positioned to engage in future tenders of a similar nature. Given that two bids were received for this contract, prospective suppliers should be prepared to offer competitive pricing and innovative solutions to meet the requirements of the Scottish Prison Service and potentially other public sector organisations in the future.
