About the buyer
Historic Environment Scotland is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Scottish Government, and buys through its own procurement team in Edinburgh. The team checks for an existing Public Sector Framework before running a tender for larger contracts. Larger opportunities are advertised on Public Contracts Scotland, linking to Find a Tender. Smaller purchases go to a minimum of three suppliers by written invitation to quote. Historic Environment Scotland manages over 300 historic properties under delegated authority from Scottish Ministers. Suppliers are judged on value for money rather than price alone, weighing after-sales support and whole-life costs.
Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of Historic Environment Scotland's contract awards have been in agricultural and horticultural services, IT services and research and development.
