Public Contracts Scotland - Notification of Public Contracts Scotland Downtime

Public Contracts Scotland will be unavailable on Friday 19 January from 18:00 and for a period of 24 hours, due to scheduled downtime.

Suppliers will NOT be able to submit postbox responses during that period. Please bear this in mind if you have a tender to submit via the Postbox facility in the coming weeks and are considering working on it during that weekend.

If there is a postbox expiring in the weeks following the downtime, buyers may choose to change the submission postbox deadline to ensure that all suppliers have the option to submit a response. If this is the case the buyer should, by way of best practice, add “additional information” to their notice/quick quote to let the suppliers know that it has been extended.

If you have any queries about a particular tender exercise, please contact the Buyer direct via the Q & A function (this is in further information section) for that opportunity at https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk



We strongly recommend that you do not leave submission to the last moment. For more information on free courses that can help you bid better please visit: https://www.sdpscotland.co.uk/events
