On Friday 21 June 2019 we published contract documents relating to the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.scot\/publications\/temporary-and-interim-staff-services-frameworks\/\">Temporary and interim staff services frameworks 2019 to 2023<\/a>. The final contract agreements for all 16 suppliers on the framework are now available to view and download. There are more frameworks in the pipeline, which we\u2019ll be publishing over the next few months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The journey so far<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We met our first commitment on the 21 May 2019 by hosting a consultation. We asked the public \u2018how can we make published procurement information useful and accessible to a wide audience?\u2019. Feedback and ideas we received were extremely useful and we will make that available soon.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re currently working on meeting our third commitment &#8211; the publication of procurement-related spend data by the end of this year.
