    Brief

    The Scottish Ministers are seeking a single supplier to provide comprehensive banking services to public bodies across Scotland. This Framework Agreement will support a wide range of public sector organizations, including Scottish Government agencies, local councils, health boards, educational institutions, social landlords, and registered charities. The framework will enable these bodies to access banking services such as account management, payment processing, cash management, and related financial services through a single contracted supplier. Eligible users include Scottish Ministers and their agencies, Scottish Non-Departmental Public Bodies, local authorities, NHS boards, further and higher education institutions, social housing providers, and organizations listed on the Scottish Charity Register. Suppliers should have the capability to serve diverse public sector clients with varying banking requirements and demonstrate experience managing large-scale, multi-user banking arrangements.
