Public Sector Contracts Scotland hits record breaking milestones


"Public Contract Scotland (PCS), The Scottish Government’s flagship procurement portal, has recorded two significant milestones this year.

A groundbreaking one million pages were viewed in both March and June – demonstrating the value of the portal to suppliers and buyers as Europe’s leading public sector procurement website.

The free-to-use portal gives businesses a single point of entry to Scottish public sector opportunities – a market worth £9 billion annually. Since it was launched in 2008, over 55,000 businesses and 350 Scottish public sector organisations have registered and use the portal.
Latest figures show that since June 2008, there have been 2,210 Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) contract awards, 2,884 sub-threshold (lower value than OJEU notices) contract awards and 1,545 Quick Quote awards. Quick Quote is a facility to create online requests for competitive quotes for low-value contracts where an advert is not required.

With significant portal developments scheduled for this year, PCS is set to deliver greater-than-ever functionality to both suppliers and buyers – making doing business with the public sector quicker, easier and more transparent."
