The City of Edinburgh Council serves Scotland's capital and second-largest city. Edinburgh combines a substantial public administration presence — the Scottish Government and Scottish Parliament are based here — with major university, health and cultural estates, and a large tourism and events economy that generates its own procurement.
The Scottish Government and its agencies procure nationally from Edinburgh. NHS Lothian covers the city and surrounding region. The University of Edinburgh is one of the largest research institutions in the UK with correspondingly significant estates and equipment procurement, alongside Heriot-Watt and Edinburgh Napier. Historic Environment Scotland and the National Galleries add heritage and cultural procurement with specialist conservation requirements.
The buyers currently advertising most in and around Edinburgh on Daily Tenders are Scottish Prison Service, The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as Public Services Delivery Scotland) (PSD Scotland), Scottish Government, Historic Environment Scotland, University Of Edinburgh and Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service.

They are generally larger, national in scope and procured centrally, but they use the same Public Contracts Scotland portal and the same Scottish regulatory regime.
