What is being bought

Published requirement description

Scottish Enterprise has 4 primary office locations in Scotland where our staff work, and we do business.

We are offering a contract opportunity for a supplier to provide professional, and customer focused on-site facilities and office support service in these locations, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, and Aberdeen, with Glasgow being our corporate headquarters. We also have some other smaller drop-in spaces in other towns across Scotland, which are shared locations with other agencies, and whilst on-site services are not needed at these additional sites, some virtual support will still be required.

We require a service which will include welcoming visitors to our offices, answering telephone calls, as well as supporting the general day to day running of the on-site facilities services for our staff, visitors, and other building users in conjunction with Scottish Enterprise staff.

It is anticipated that the contract will commence on 1 June 2024 for an initial period of 24 months to 31 May 2026.

Following the initial period, Scottish Enterprise will have the option of 3 x 12-month additional extension periods.
