This procurement falls under the services category, specifically within business services such as law, marketing, and recruitment. The contract was awarded through a direct procurement method without competitive bidding and features a potential extension of up to three years. Located in Perth, the council aims to enable its employees to continue benefiting from childcare vouchers through a salary sacrifice arrangement, offering financial tax savings on childcare costs. The award decision was formalised on 5th August 2025, following the tender initiated on 6th January 2025. This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for firms specialising in employee benefits, particularly those providing salary sacrifice schemes. Companies experienced in managing service-oriented contracts and those with expertise in tax-efficient employment schemes would find this procurement appealing. It presents a stable partnership format, ensuring profitability through national insurance savings for both the council and its employees. Such contracts allow suitable firms to establish strong, lasting relationships with public sector bodies, enhancing their reputation and opening doors for further opportunities within the business services sector. ## Notice PKC sought to appoint a suitably qualified supplier to provide childcare vouchers through a salary sacrifice arrangement. The scheme enables PKC to provide employees who have already signed up to receive childcare vouchers to continue to do so to assist with the cost of childcare for children under 15 years old (under 16 for disabled children). The supplier must provide childcare vouchers through a salary sacrifice arrangement allowing employees to save income tax and national insurance on the portion of sacrificed salary, while PKC can achieve savings from national insurance. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY530154 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | The contract is awarded to a single supplier without competition. | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 May 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 13 May 2025 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £7,488 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | PERTH & KINROSS COUNCIL | | Additional buyers | ANGUS COUNCIL; CHILDREN'S HEARINGS SCOTLAND; EAST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL; FIFE COLLEGE; FIFE COUNCIL; FORESTRY AND LAND SCOTLAND; MUIRHOUSE HOUSING ASSOCIATION; NHS GRAMPIAN; NHS GREATER GLASGOW AND CLYDE; NORTH EAST SCOTLAND COLLEGE; REGISTERS OF SCOTLAND; SCOTTISH BORDERS COUNCIL; SCOTTISH ENTERPRISE; SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT; SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT- SASA; SCOTTISH POLICE AUTHORITY; THE CITY OF EDINBURGH COUNCIL; UHI EXECUTIVE OFFICE; UNIVERSITY OF STRATHCLYDE | | Locality | GLASGOW | | Post town | Glasgow | | Postcode | G2 8LU | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM02 Perth and Kinross, and Stirling | | Local authority | Perth and Kinross | | Electoral ward | Perth City Centre | | Westminster constituency | Perth and Kinross-shire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 40 | | Supplier names | ARCADIS; ARCO; ARTSCAPE GARDENS; ATKINSREALIS; BECHTLE DIRECT; BURNS CONSTRUCTION (ABERDEEN; COPTRZ; CR CONTRACTING NORTH; CURRIE & BROWN; DELOITTE; DELSON CONTRACTS; DENNIS EAGLE; EDENRED (UK GROUP; GIBB & BEVERIDGE ENGINEERING AGENCIES; GLEN SHURAIG CONSULTING; GROWTH FLAG (PART OF GC INSIGHT; HARBOUR MULTI-TRADES; HARPER MACLEOD; HARVEY NASH; HILLCREST FUTURES; HYMANS ROBERTSON; JML CONTRACTS; KINTO; LION SAFETY (SMI SCOTLAND; LORIEN RESOURCING; MACLIN ELECTRIC; MEHLER VARIO SYSTEM; NOTTINGHAM REHAB; REPUBLIC OF MEDIA; ROV SCOTLAND; RS FLEET INSTALLATIONS LTD T/A RS CONNECT; STAND; STREAMTEC; THE LINES BETWEEN; THORNTONS LAW; TOPSPEED COURIERS; TREKA BUS; VENESKY BROWN; VENESKY-BROWN RECRUITMENT; ZENITH PROPERTY CONSERVATION | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79000000 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ## Release History - 13 May 2025 at 09:36 - Award - PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY530154 ## Notice URLs - http://fife.ac.uk - http://https://forestryandland.gov.scot - http://https://www.uhi.ac.uk - http://www.angus.gov.uk/ - http://www.chscotland.gov.uk/ - http://www.eastdunbarton.gov.uk - http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk - http://www.fife.gov.uk - http://www.muirhouseha.org.uk - http://www.nhsggc.scot/about-us/procurement/ - http://www.nhsgrampian.org - http://www.pkc.gov.uk - http://www.ros.gov.uk - http://www.scotborders.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - http://www.scottish-enterprise.com/ - http://www.spa.police.uk - http://www.strath.ac.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
