## Summary

The contracting authority, Social Security Scotland, located in Dundee, has concluded the contract for the "Social Security Scotland Live Service Team" project. This procurement falls under the general public services category and is classified with the CPV code 72000000. The procurement process is administered via the Social Programme Management (SPM) Dynamic Purchasing System, using a restricted procedure method. The contract, valued at £9,700,000, was signed on 23rd December 2021, and the related services are to be delivered in Glasgow. This award is currently active, marking the procurement stage as complete, with previous opportunities for bid submission having concluded as of the latest activity on 12th September 2025.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for organisations, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality service solutions in the public sector domain. The project allows for a significant extension of up to 24 months and offers flexibility for increased roles or service demand adaptation, suggesting considerable potential for ongoing work. While Mphasis UK Limited, a large-scale enterprise, has secured the main contract, opportunities for future tendering could appeal to large consultancies; however, smaller firms might benefit from subcontracting or partnerships. Additionally, the requirement to create apprenticeships within deprived areas reinforces Social Security Scotland’s commitment to community impact and offers growth potential through socially responsible business practices.
