Who can access National Contracts

We have the remit and funding to engage in national contracting for category A commodities for the Scottish public sector, with all current activities detailed in the Contract & Strategy Directory section.

As new category A national contracts and non-contract national strategies come on-line through the collaborative sourcing activity, all buying organisations across the Scottish public sector are encouraged to use them and realise cashable savings and non-cashable benefits.

To access more detailed information on current national contracts and how to buy off them
please contact ps-enquiries@scotland.gsi.gov.uk.
