In late 2024, we carried out a survey to better understand how suppliers experience the public procurement process. The published report summarising the findings can be found on our website. 

The survey aimed to help us better understand the Scottish public procurement process from the perspective of suppliers. The survey covered respondents’ bidding patterns, feedback received on their bids, the journey for suppliers, the sustainable procurement duty, challenges and support for bidders, consortium bids, sub-contracting, training and capacity building, and overall perceptions of public procurement in Scotland.
