Contract Opportunities

Scottish Enterprise Market Research Tools Contract Opportunity and Webinar.

The Scottish Enterprise Research Service supports companies by providing robust, unbiased market and company research to inform business decisions.

To deliver this service, SE subscribe to a range of market and company information databases, complemented by public domain sources, to answer specific client queries.

Most of Sottish Enterprise’s current subscriptions will expire at the end of March 2026.

Before issuing a new invitation to tender, SE are seeking to understand the current market landscape and welcome expressions of interest from providers of market research and company information who can support their service model.

The service will be split into individual contracts/lots for each research database requirement. The requirements for each contract/lot will be finalised after consultation with the market via a Supplier Development Programme ‘Talking Tenders’ webinar.

Scottish Enterprise are looking to procure a comprehensive suite of commercial databases to support businesses across Scotland, helping them explore new markets, gain valuable insights, and make informed decisions with reduced risk.

This webinar is open to both established providers and new entrants to the market.

What to expect:

• An overview of the Research Service, including how SE operate and who they support
• Insights into their current requirements
• A Q&A session to engage directly with the SE team

By attending this webinar, you will gain a clearer understanding of their needs, and they will gain valuable insight into the supplier landscape, informing their upcoming procurement process.
