## Summary

The Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service bought recruitment services for a Senior Infrastructure and Cloud Engineer specialising in security. The requirement is for sourcing and providing a senior specialist to support the organisation’s infrastructure, cloud and security needs. It is a services procurement under CPV 79600000, covering recruitment and related staffing provision rather than construction, hardware supply or a general managed IT service. Delivery is associated with the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service in Edinburgh and the wider Scotland region. The procurement was made against the national Interim IT Staff Services framework, indicating that the buyer uses framework-based routes for interim technology staffing requirements.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through an open procedure under the national Interim IT Staff Services framework. One lot was awarded to Lorien Resourcing Ltd. The contract was signed on 17 April 2026 and is active, with a value of £258,960. The requirement was initially for 12 months, with a sole purchaser option to extend the total contract duration to 24 months. Four bids were received; none came from SMEs. The award information does not state a separate award date. Evaluation details are not set out in the available process information, so the published outcome identifies the successful supplier, framework route, contract value and duration rather than individual scoring criteria.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates demand from the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service for senior interim technology specialists combining infrastructure, cloud engineering and security expertise. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to recruit, vet and supply people able to operate at senior level across these three areas, and to present a dependable staffing service rather than only individual consultancy capability. The buyer’s use of the national Interim IT Staff Services framework is commercially significant: suppliers seeking similar work would need access to suitable framework routes or a route into them, alongside a demonstrable ability to identify qualified candidates quickly and support public-sector engagements. The scale indicates a substantial single-specialist staffing requirement, rather than a broad technology transformation programme.
