About the buyer

Forestry and Land Scotland manages Scotland's national forest estate as an executive agency of the Scottish Government, sourcing land management, recreation, civil engineering and business support work through public tender. Suppliers register with Public Contracts Scotland to view its live opportunities and contract award notices. Larger contracts run through the PCS-Tender system, while smaller purchases go through PCS Quick Quote. Open dynamic purchasing systems let eligible suppliers join at any time. Works contracts mostly use the NEC4 standard form. Prior information notices flag major procurements ahead of tender for interested bidders and suppliers.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of Forestry and Land Scotland's contract awards have been in agricultural and horticultural services, transport equipment and construction work.
