ESPD (Scotland) is coming to Public Contracts Scotland

All public bodies in Scotland will need to issue and accept the European Single Procurement Document (ESPD) in an entirely electronic format from April 2018. This will be integrated into PCS, allowing suppliers to use the new functionality to complete their ESPD responses entirely online. The functionality will be built into the existing PCS portal and will not require users to re-register or log-in separately.

Attending our training can help you prepare for this change. In particular look out for our level 1.2 Using PCS and other Portals and 2.1 Tender Procedures and the ESPD. View and register for all upcoming training on our calendar.
