Information for Suppliers

eProcurement Scotl@nd (ePS) aims to deliver benefits to suppliers and buyers alike. It is the first e-Procurement programme that allows public sector buyers to conduct business electronically with their suppliers using a common technical platform.

Supplier e-enablment is the process of e-enabling suppliers to conduct business through ePS. A clear and consistent approach is used by the Programme in the adoption of suppliers. This ensures a professional, standard approach, removing duplication of effort and mixed messages.

Process of e-enabling a supplier to work with ePS is lead by the buying organisation. Suppliers must first be supplying to a ePS participating organisation before it is possible to be e-enabled to the ePS service. To find out if the public sector organisation you supply to is a registered ePS user, access the list of participating organisations.
