Overview of the Central Government Centre of
Procurement Expertise (CGCoPE)

• CGCoPE A division within the Scottish
  Government, Scottish Procurement Directorate
  responsible for facilitating User Intelligence
  Groups (UIGs) and collaborative procurement
  exercises for goods and services classified as
  Category B following the review of public
  procurement in Scotland (McClelland Report)
• High value commodities and services that tend to
  be unique to a specific sector, but common within
  that sector, should be categorised as Category
  B. Contracts to meet Category B requirements
  will be established centrally within each sector,
  rather than individual organisations in that
  sector performing the same function multiple
  times, without volume or value consolidation.
• The Temporary Staff Services contract, is
  available for use by the Scottish Ministers
  (including all Directorates and Agencies of the
  Scottish Government), Non-Departmental Public
  Bodies, the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate
  Body, the Forestry Commission, the Sea Fish
  Industry Authority, the Student Loans Company and
  the Scotland Office. (NB there are in excess of
  80 central government organisations, employing
  more the 35,000 permanent members of staff)
