## Summary

The Scottish Government has recently completed the award process for the tender titled "Award of Robotic Process Automation." This project, which falls under the IT services sector, specifically aims to develop, test, and deploy Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions within HR Shared Services, potentially incorporating Artificial Intelligence to enhance efficiency. The tender period started on 7th February 2022 and concluded on 2nd May 2022. The total value of the contract awarded is £375,000, with Ernst & Young LLP (EY) as the successful supplier.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses offering IT consulting and software development services, particularly those specialised in automation and artificial intelligence solutions.
