The work covers project management and governance oversight, supporting the Council in managing and governing programmes to correct pensionable pay records or calculations. It is a services requirement delivered in Edinburgh. The procurement was made against the National LGPS Frameworks for Actuarial, Benefits and Governance Consultancy Services 2026, indicating a local-government pension context. The requirement was organised as one lot and covered by the WTO Government Procurement Agreement. It is relevant to pension consultancies, actuarial firms and specialist project management providers with experience of Local Government Pension Scheme work and pension administration rectification programmes. The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open procedure. One bid was received and evaluated electronically. The single award for the project management and governance oversight requirement went to Hymans Robertson. The contract value is £83,070. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and is recorded as active. The award was made against a national LGPS consultancy framework rather than through a direct standalone procedure. The contract includes a mandatory prompt-payment clause: subcontractors must be paid within 30 days at every stage of the supply chain, with a designated contact for payment difficulties. The supplier must actively monitor payment performance and provide supporting evidence and reports to the Council when requested or scheduled. This award demonstrates demand from Edinburgh for specialist support combining pension project management, governance oversight and pensionable pay rectification. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical experience of Local Government Pension Scheme environments, pension administration or actuarial and benefits consultancy, and the ability to manage complex rectification programmes through clear governance arrangements. It would also need sufficient project controls, reporting capability and stakeholder management to provide evidence to the Council. Suppliers using subcontractors would need robust supply-chain payment monitoring and reporting, including arrangements to ensure payment within 30 days and a clear route for resolving payment difficulties. Framework experience would also be commercially relevant, particularly participation in national LGPS consultancy routes. ## Notice Project management and governance oversight for pensionable pay rectification programmes. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Project management and governance oversight for pensionable pay rectification programmes ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG562773 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Jul 2026 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £83,070 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | The City of Edinburgh Council | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Postcode area | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH8 8BG | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | City Centre | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh East and Musselburgh | | Delivery location | TLM75 City of Edinburgh | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | Hymans Robertson; The City of Edinburgh Council | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 66 - Financial and insurance services ### Codes - 66523000 - Pension fund consultancy services ## Release History - 20 Aug 2026 at 01:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG562773 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG562773 Pensions Project Management Support - Project management and governance oversight for pensionable pay rectification programmes. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000840771 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
