## Summary

The Scottish Government, acting through the Scottish Procurement and Property Directorate (SPPD), is in the planning stage of a procurement process for the 'General Office Supplies 2027' project. This initiative is geared towards creating a new framework agreement to supply general office supplies across Scotland. The current framework is set to expire on 30 June 2027, with a request for information open until 3 July 2026, allowing stakeholders to contribute their views on the procurement strategy. The organisation at the helm, located in Glasgow, Scotland, is a central purchasing body and represents authority over national and regional public sector procurement. This tender falls under the 'General public services' and 'goods' industry categories and anticipates the notice for future tendering activities to be published on 7 December 2026.

The 'General Office Supplies 2027' tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses that can supply stationery, office paper, electronic supplies, catering goods, cleaning products, and small office machines. Valued at £36,000,000 over four years, this framework is ideal for suppliers with comprehensive service coverage and a focus on quality. Firms capable of supporting community benefits and adhering to Fair Work criteria, such as paying the Real Living Wage, are particularly encouraged. By contributing through the current Request for Information, businesses can influence procurement strategies, positioning themselves strategically for a framework that promises to strengthen not only their market presence but also their relationship with the Scottish public sector.
