## Summary

Social Security Scotland, acting through the Scottish Ministers, procured interim delivery management services. The requirement was for delivery manager resource to support the organisation’s work, with one interim Delivery Manager contract ultimately awarded from an initial requirement described as three Delivery Managers. The service falls within personnel supply services (CPV 79620000). The procurement is associated with Social Security Scotland, based in Dundee, and the delivery location is Scotland. The requirement is for a management professional rather than goods or construction work, so it is most relevant to recruitment and staffing suppliers able to provide interim delivery management resource, and to firms supplying delivery managers to public bodies.

The procurement is complete and one contract was awarded to Venesky Brown Ltd. The contract was signed on 21 September 2026 and has a stated value of £140,142.62. This is not a fixed-price contract, so actual spend may vary. The initial procurement described a need for three Delivery Managers, but one interim Delivery Manager contract was awarded. The procedure was open, and the award was made against the Scottish Government Temporary and Interim Staff Services Frameworks 2023 to 2027. Four electronic bids were recorded for the lot. The contract includes an option to extend the interim Delivery Manager term by up to 12 months; the estimated extension cost is included in the stated contract value.

This award demonstrates a public-sector requirement for interim delivery management resource through the Scottish Government’s temporary and interim staff services framework. A supplier competing for a similar requirement would need to provide a suitably capable Delivery Manager and be able to supply interim personnel through the relevant framework route. The award covered one manager, despite an initial stated requirement for three, indicating that this individual contract was for a single resource rather than a larger team appointment. Four bids were recorded, including no bids from SMEs, so suppliers should be prepared to compete with established staffing providers. The opportunity is particularly relevant to firms with public-sector recruitment or interim management services and the capacity to place delivery management professionals.
