Background

What to know

Scotland runs its own procurement portal, Public Contracts Scotland, and its own legislative framework alongside the UK-wide rules. Scottish public bodies publish there across all values, which makes PCS a more complete single source than any English equivalent — but above-threshold notices also appear on Find a Tender, so the two overlap rather than replace one another.

The Scottish regime puts more explicit statutory weight on community benefit. Fair Work First requirements, including the real Living Wage, appear regularly in Scottish tender documents in ways they do not south of the border, and they are scored, not merely asked about.

For suppliers based elsewhere in the UK, Scottish contracts are open to bid, but local delivery capability and a credible Fair Work position matter to the score.

Questions

Common questions

Do I need a Scottish office to bid?

No, but demonstrable delivery capability in Scotland helps, and many contracts weight community benefit in a way that favours local employment and supply chains.

What is Fair Work First?

A Scottish Government policy attaching employment conditions to public contracts, including payment of the real Living Wage and effective worker voice. It frequently appears as scored criteria in Scottish tenders.
