This procurement, currently in the tender stage, is categorised under general public services, with a focus on technology-related services. The DPS, originally established in 2019, has been extended for another year until 19 September 2026, during which new suppliers can join. The procurement process follows a restricted procedure, requiring electronic submissions, and aims to involve numerous suppliers to foster competition. The procurement covers services that will be delivered in regions such as UKM, aligning with industry codes related to electronics and software services. The tender period concludes on 18 September 2026, with the submission deadline approaching prior to that date. The extension of the IoT DPS presents significant growth opportunities for tech companies specialising in IoT technologies. Businesses involved in electronics, software, and telecommunications are ideally positioned to benefit from this contract, as it offers a pathway to engage with the Scottish Government's purchasing activities. With a procurement value of £2,000,000, and criteria balancing quality and price, businesses can leverage this opportunity to expand their market presence and develop solutions that meet public service needs. Additionally, the openness of this DPS provides a gateway for new suppliers to join and showcase their innovations, making it attractive for emerging tech enterprises aiming to collaborate with governmental contracts. ## Notice The Authority is further extending its collaborative Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Internet of Things (IoT) for an additional 12 months until 19 September 2026. The DPS will remain open for new suppliers to apply to join. However, existing suppliers that are currently on the DPS do not need to re-apply and will remain on the DPS.
