## Summary

The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) bought IT health checks and technical assurance to support its digital strategy and cyber security requirements. The work covers NCSC CHECK-accredited security testing; application and infrastructure health checks; identity and access management reviews; Public Services Network assurance; and technical assurance across business-critical systems, cloud-hosted services and transformation projects. Services are commissioned as required and scoped through individual Statements of Work. The buying organisation is COPFS, and delivery is in Scotland. This is a specialist cyber security and IT assurance services requirement, rather than a general IT support contract. The services are intended to assess systems and provide assurance against COPFS’s technical and security needs.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Dionach Ltd. COPFS used an open procedure through the Government Commercial Agency’s G-Cloud 14 framework. The contract was signed on 7 October 2026 and is active. Its initial term is 36 months, with an option to extend for a further 12 months. The maximum anticipated value is £380,600 excluding VAT, covering the full term including the extension; actual expenditure depends on the health checks commissioned and their individual scopes. Work is ordered on an as-required basis through Statements of Work. The procurement had one bid, from an SME. The published information does not give a separate award date or evaluation criteria, so the outcome is reported here by the contract signing date and selected supplier.

For suppliers assessing similar future work for COPFS, this award shows demand for specialist security testing and technical assurance across applications, infrastructure, identity and access management, and Public Services Network services. Credibility would depend on NCSC CHECK accreditation for security testing, alongside the technical ability to assess business-critical systems, cloud-hosted services and transformation projects. Suppliers would also need to scope varied health checks and assurance tasks into individual Statements of Work, then deliver them on an as-required basis rather than as a single fixed package of work. The requirement spans several connected assurance capabilities, so a supplier able to address both testing and broader technical assurance would be well placed to compete when this buyer next seeks comparable services.
