## Summary

Registers of Scotland procured temporary IT personnel through a call-off from the Scottish Government’s Temporary and Interim Staff (IT) collaborative framework. The requirement was for a senior software developer, with details set out in the buyer’s requirement, role profile and IR35 determination. This is a specialist staff supply service rather than a software product or general IT project. Registers of Scotland is based in Edinburgh; the data does not identify a separate delivery location. The framework’s terms and conditions apply, including its Schedule 5. The procurement sits within personnel supply services (CPV 79620000).

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Registers of Scotland made a direct award to Venesky Brown Ltd, the supplier ranked first on the Scottish Government’s fourth-generation IT temporary and interim staff framework. The process was conducted without competition; one bid is recorded. The award date is not provided. The initial contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 18 April 2027, with a possible six-month extension to 18 October 2027. The awarded value for the initial term is £68,400 excluding VAT. The notice also gives a maximum potential spend of £136,800 excluding VAT if extensions are taken. This was a single-supplier call-off, not a competition divided into lots; selection followed the supplier’s framework ranking.

This award demonstrates demand at Registers of Scotland for senior software development capability supplied through the Scottish Government’s IT temporary and interim staff framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to be eligible and appropriately ranked within that framework, and able to supply a senior developer whose skills match the role profile. The buyer also required an IR35 determination stating that the engagement was outside the off-payroll working rules, so suppliers should be ready to support an engagement on that basis. The contract was a focused individual staffing call-off rather than a broad technology delivery programme. Recruitment firms and specialist IT staffing suppliers with access to suitable senior developers and experience placing interim personnel through public-sector frameworks are best aligned with this requirement.
