sportscotland tendering process

The tendering process has been designed to attain best value.

Any new project that we put out to tender will be announced publicly via this website.

Invitation to tender

The consultants or agencies invited to tender will be sent an email inviting them to tender by a specified date (normally three weeks), together with any additional information or amendments to the brief.

Selection of tender

Assessment of tenders will be made under four broad headings:

  • Style and presentation of proposal
  • Experience and staffing
  • Approach, methods and timetable
  • Cost and value for money

Tenders will also be assessed according to project specific criteria outlined in the proposal brief.

Those consultants or agencies whose proposals are unsuccessful will be informed promptly, and sportscotland will provide feedback on the quality of the submitted proposal if requested.

sportscotland is not bound to accept any tender. On occasion consultants or agencies may be invited to give a presentation of their proposal to sportscotland to assist with the selection process.

Awarding of contract

The successful consultant or agency will be invited to a briefing meeting with relevant sportscotland staff. A contract will be issued following this meeting.
