## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service has awarded a contract titled "SPS-02116 - Water Quality Management Services including Legionellosis" under the public order and safety industry category. The contract encompasses the entire SPS estate, located primarily in the UKM region, with specific focus on Edinburgh. Originally initiated with a limited procurement method via the Advanced Procurement for Universities and Colleges (APUC) Framework, the process concluded with the award on 8th November 2024. The contract is valued at GBP 485,863 and aims to provide comprehensive water quality management, including maintenance, inspections, and certification services over a period of 3 years, with a potential extension for up to an additional 3 years.
