### Lot Information

Lot 1

This is a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice. This notice is to indicate that Scottish Ministers, acting through Social Security Scotland, intend to extend the current SPM Social Security Scotland - Live Service Team (Lot 2) contract from 6 January 2026 to 30 June 2026

Options: This is not a fixed price contract therefore actual spend may vary from the value stated above.

### Procurement Information

The continued provision of services under the current contract is essential to ensure that Social Security Scotland can continue to provide technical support for its core benefit platform (SPM) until a replacement contract can be put in place. A competitive process is underway to identify and put such a replacement in place, by April 2026. The extension of the current term of the contract is considered to be proportionate in the circumstances based on previous experience, and taking into account the need for a contingency to account for potential delays.
