Welcome to PCS-Tender

PCS-Tender is the national eTendering system, and is centrally funded by the Scottish Government. The system is a secure and efficient means for buyers and suppliers to manage tender exercises online. The standard SPD (Scotland) and ITT templates enable buyers to easily create consistent tender documentation.

EU Exit

The UK has left the EU and the transition period comes to an end at 11pm on 31 December 2020. While this will result in some technical changes taking place, the procedures and processes of advertising and awarding public contracts will not fundamentally change and all users should continue to use PCS-Tender as they do now.

From 1 January 2021, relevant references to the EU and EU procurement legislation will either be updated or removed from the PCS-Tender site where appropriate. This will be an ongoing process undertaken during the early part of 2021.

Suppliers

Once you have registered as a supplier, you will be sent a password via email which will provide you with secure access to the site. You will then be able to express interest in any advertised tender exercises. Additionally, you will be able to complete your supplier profile, which will pre-populate tender responses providing buyers have used the standard questions.
