## Summary

The Scottish Government bought mobile voice and data services for itself and applicable shared-service and other public bodies. The requirement covers mobile voice and data connectivity and associated telecommunications services, including mobile network and data services. Delivery is across Scotland. This is a public-sector mobile services requirement rather than a supply of handsets alone, so it is most relevant to mobile network operators and telecommunications providers able to support multiple public bodies through a shared arrangement.

The procurement is complete and Vodafone Ltd was selected; the contract is active and was signed on 7 September 2026. The contract value is £4 million. It was awarded as a call-off from the Scottish Government’s existing single-supplier mobile voice and data framework, using a limited procedure without a prior competition. One bid was recorded. The opportunity was structured as a single lot covering the Scottish Government and applicable shared-service and other bodies. The contract period and detailed evaluation criteria are not stated in the available procurement information.

This award demonstrates demand from the Scottish Government and associated public bodies for a shared mobile voice and data service. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to provide mobile network coverage and dependable voice and data services across Scotland, and be able to support the needs of several public-sector bodies under a coordinated service arrangement. The route used here was a call-off from a single-supplier framework, so relevant framework access and the ability to deliver under public-sector framework terms would matter. Vodafone was the selected supplier and is identified as an accredited Real Living Wage employer; this is relevant evidence about the incumbent, but the procurement information does not establish it as an evaluation requirement.
