This Challenge presents an exciting opportunity to make a positive difference in protecting children in Scotland from harm, an area of the highest priority for the Scottish Cabinet and partners. Scotland’s child protection system relies on Inter-Agency Referral Discussions (IRDs) to make timely safeguarding decisions for children (over 17,000 IRDs took place during 2024-25). IRDs are effective and work well as a process, however they are currently supported by fragmented IT systems, manual processes and localised records. This results in duplication, delays, and barriers to information sharing across agencies and local authorities. These inefficiencies increase administrative burden, reducing time available for direct support to children and families. The Scottish Government, Police Scotland and the National Social Work Agency (TBC) are seeking innovative solutions that will enable secure streamlined multi-agency information sharing for the existing IRD process, as well as providing real-time local and national data to improve child protection outcomes across Scotland.
The Scottish Government’s Directorate for Digital is seeking an innovative service management solution to support a growing portfolio of digital services, including ScotAccount, ScotPayments, mygov.scot, Cloud Platform Services, and more.

A successful solution will help ensure resilient, secure and efficient service operations, reducing risks to service quality, productivity, revenue and public trust, while supporting the future development of Scotland’s digital public services.

National Armaments Director Group (formerly Defence Equipment and Support)
UHS is seeking to engage with interested parties to discuss and refine an opportunity to become a strategic endoscopy partner to the Trust. UHS provides a regional endoscopy service to a population of 3m+, offering a comprehensive range of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Following a fire earlier this year, UHS has reviewed its long-term endoscopy requirements and is considering a new purpose-built regional diagnostic endoscopy centre situated close to the main hospital. UHS has existing endoscopy equipment to the value of approximately £8-10m. This will need to be refreshed throughout this contract. UHS has an indicative budget of £20-25m for the design and construction of the new centre. This will be designed to meet current and projected future endoscopy and motility needs, 'a one-stop-shop' and be an important centre to both trial new technology and techniques and provide training for the next generation of the endoscopy workforce. This opportunity is to explore and discuss how a partnership approach may drive better outcomes for patients, for innovation, for UHS clinicians, and for the partner[S(1.1][L(1.2]. This opportunity may include, but not necessarily be limited to: 1: Provision of endoscopy equipment to a new offsite location, both for the use of clinicians undertaking NHS clinical activity, and for use as a test bed for innovation and new technique development, and for use within a training environment. 2: Regional Training Centre: The physical co-location of experienced UHS staff, clinicians, data, patients with an industry partner seeking to promote best practice and create future workforce. 3: Joint Innovation Deal & Test Bed: The provision of a live, data-rich NHS environment to validate new technology, and techniques, for example artificial intelligence (AI) diagnostic tools and ergonomic designs and potentially the exploitation of emerging shared Intellectual Property. This would also include SME and VCSE participation for research and innovation. 4: Commercial Sponsorship Opportunity with Associated Rights and Benefits: In addition to the core procurement opportunities above, there is potential to explore a complementary commercial sponsorship arrangement, which may include the provision of value-in-kind goods and/or services that support contract delivery. This strategic partnership approach would identify and agree a range of associated rights and benefits for suppliers who also become sponsors. These may include appropriate sponsor recognition, opportunities for collaboration and innovation, shared learning, thought leadership engagement, and other mutually agreed activities that support the objectives of all parties. UHS, with support from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), is trialling the integration of commercial sponsorship into this procurement opportunity to explore how strategic partnerships can deliver additional value while supporting the successful delivery of contract outcomes. Whilst this notice is not intended to create a commitment to a contract, it is running alongside a live funded NHS capital project to develop designs and take forward the concept of a regional endoscopy centre. This hybrid procurement and sponsorship model is being piloted by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and UHS, offering potential suppliers a unique opportunity to play an active role in delivering a best-in-class new facility for patients: supporting improved care, championing innovation and delivering lasting benefits for all parties. To ensure fair and open competition in any future procurement, the developing design and specification will remain supplier-neutral and will not be tailored to any specific manufacturer, supplier or solution.
1.1 The Authority Cockermouth Town Council is inviting competitive tenders for minor civil works to improve a public footpath section. Engineering drawings and technical specifications were prepared on behalf of the Town Council by Cumberland Council. 1.2 Purpose of Work The objective is to establish an accessible, surfaced route from Double Mills footbridge to the woodland section behind Dale View, Cockermouth. Currently, this missing link prevents access for pushchairs, wheelchairs, and less-mobile pedestrians. 1.3 Key Project Details • Design & Standards: Formulated via engineering drawings provided by Cumberland Council. • Target Start Date: February / March 2027 (Spring 2027) or before. • Contract Duration: Estimated 2 consecutive weeks. 2.1 Scope of Works The contractor will provide all plant, labour, and materials to execute the following sequence: 1. Site Establishment: Set up a secure temporary compound near the park entrance at Dale View. 2. Safety Measures: Formally close Footpath No. 223015 to the public for the 2-week duration of works. (Cumberland Council has agreed to meet the costs of this) 3. Excavation: Dig out a ground tray 50mm deep along the path alignment. Retain topsoil and arisings on-site for reuse. 4. Membrane: Supply and lay a heavy-duty geotextile separation membrane along the length of construction. 5. Sub-Base: Supply, lay, and compact a 150mm depth of Type 1 granular sub-base. 6. Surface Course: Supply, lay, and compact a 40mm depth of 0-6mm crushed aggregate to form a smooth, accessible top finish. 7. Alignment Note: The path alignment must run to the right-hand side of the park bench and to the left-hand side of the trees. 8. Tie-ins: Saw cut the existing macadam path at chainage 0m near the Double Mills footbridge to ensure a flush finish. The end chainage must meet completely flush with the existing timber bridge deck. 9. Landscaping: Smooth out and reinstate path edges using the saved arisings and topsoil, then seed with an 80/20 wildflower mix. 2.2 Critical Site Constraints • Narrow Access: Access to the park area is via a restrictive, narrow road at Dale View. Large commercial HGVs or oversized plant will not physically fit. Bidders must check this access profile prior to pricing. • Watercourse Proximity: The works run directly alongside the River Cocker. • Environmental Protection: All materials and plant machinery must remain at least 5 metres away from the watercourse channel on ground with no immediate flooding risk. Absolutely no refuelling, servicing, or greasing is allowed on site. Equipment must be checked for leaks before entering the site. • Flood Risk Management: Works must be carried out in generally dry conditions. The contractor is required to monitor local water levels and Environment Agency flood alerts prior to and during construction to reduce risk to the workforce.

The Department for Transport (DfT) intends to procure a supplier to develop a new National Freight Model (NFM), an in-house, cross-modal freight modelling capability designed to support transport policy development, appraisal, forecasting and decision-making across the UK. The NFM will replace existing freight modelling approaches and provide a modern analytical framework capable of representing freight movements across road, rail and domestic maritime modes. The contract will include the design, development, calibration, validation and implementation of a multimodal freight model capable of estimating current and future freight demand and flows by commodity, vehicle type and transport mode. The model must support the analysis of domestic freight movements and international freight movements to and from the United Kingdom, including maritime and rail freight services. The NFM will be required to assess the impacts of changes to infrastructure, land use, economic conditions, logistics behaviours and government policy interventions. It will also enable the testing of alternative scenarios and sensitivities to support transport planning, network resilience analysis, decarbonisation initiatives, freight mode shift assessments and wider strategic policy development. The successful supplier will be expected to develop and document the model, provide supporting methodologies, undertake any necessary data collection or acquisition activities, deliver stakeholder engagement and training, and ensure that the Department can operate, maintain and further develop the model independently following completion of the contract. The procurement may include associated research, data acquisition, innovative analytical approaches and the development of new methodologies necessary to deliver the required modelling capabilities and outcomes.

Medway Council (‘the Authority’) is a unitary authority based in Kent, consisting of the main towns of Strood, Rochester, Chatham, Gillingham, and Rainham. The highway network in the Medway towns covers approximately 840km, with 110km of A roads, 37km of B roads, 97km of C road, and 596km of unclassified roads.

This opportunity is for the delivery of a pilot programme of employer-led virtual internships during the 2026/27 academic year. The pilot forms part of the University's strategic commitment to improving graduate employability through widening access to high-quality work experience. The University recognises that many students face barriers to accessing traditional internships due to financial constraints, caring responsibilities, disability, geographical location and other personal circumstances. Internships offer an opportunity to remove many of these barriers whilst providing meaningful engagement with employers and authentic workplace experience.
Scotland has the highest drug and alcohol related death rates in the UK and Europe. People with substance use issues (PWSUI) often need help outside normal 'office' hours or from a distance from offices, and support is not uniformly available throughout Scotland. The support landscape in Scotland is fragmented, hard to navigate, and varies by locality. When support isn’t readily available (or isn’t trusted), people and their families and friends often default to emergency services or remain unsupported. As a result, those who use substances often experience avoidable crisis escalation, or remain in extremely difficult situations, and support services miss opportunities for early, harm-reducing interventions. The Preventing Harm, Promoting Recovery: Scotland’s Alcohol & Drugs Strategic Plan 2026 – 2035 specifically addresses the crucial need to tackle early intervention and widen an individual’s ‘circle of support’. This ‘circle of support’ is at the heart of this Challenge, and a successful solution would enable people to access the right support sooner, regardless of locality. It should harness the power of existing trusted services, family and community to reduce avoidable demand on emergency and NHS services – and if possible, create a ‘feedback loop’ of learning, intelligence and insight so that the overall issue can be tackled in a continually improving manner.

The procurement is split into 4 lots. The Authority is committed to supporting SME participation. Regional lotting was considered during procurement design but was not adopted due to operational, commercial and contract management considerations. Bidders may bid as a consortium and subcontracting arrangements are permitted. Regional suppliers are encouraged to collaborate where appropriate to deliver the requirement.
