The Procurement Unit

Historic Scotland supports open tendering and has created this section to assist suppliers who may be interested in bidding for contract opportunities. The Procurement Unit monitors the implementation of correct contractual policies and procedures, ensuring good practice.

	It is our normal practice to award business through competition seeking best value for money to support the key elements of Scottish Executive procurement policy.
We are also required to comply with the European Union Procurement Directives and the World Trade Organisation Government Procurement Agreement

Historic Scotland advertises its significant requirements on this website. Contracts exceeding the EC Public Procurement Directive thresholds are also advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU). The OJEU advertisements can be accessed through the Tenders Electronic Daily website.
