## Summary

The Registers of Scotland, located in Edinburgh, has completed the award stage of a procurement process for IT Temporary and Interim Staff services. The contract, identified as "Award of RoS - SG IT Temporary and Interim Staff - Direct Award - Software Development Coach," falls under the services category and has been granted to Venesky Brown Ltd. This direct award was part of the Scottish Government’s Temporary and Interim Staff (IT) 4th Generation Collaborative Framework Agreement. The contract term is initially set for 12 months starting from 20th July 2026, with a potential extension of another year, given certain conditions are met. The anticipated maximum contract value, should all extensions be made, is up to £287,452.80 excluding VAT. Key aspects include a BPSS security check requirement and a hybrid working arrangement within the UK.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in IT staffing or recruitment services seeking to leverage framework agreements. Given that the award criteria heavily weigh the quality of the interim worker at 80%, businesses well-suited to compete would be those with robust recruitment and training operations capable of providing highly skilled IT professionals. Such procurement processes offer a stable workload with defined parameters, creating a predictable revenue stream over the contract period for successful suppliers.
