Developed as a mobile solution for www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk and in conjunction with the Scottish Government, Millstream has launched the world’s first procurement app specifically designed to alert businesses in real-time of new contract opportunities from the public sector. App users will be able to access information more easily and faster than by browsing on the mobile web, as well as search notices by category, commodity and date.
The new app will work alongside the PCS portal – both of which are free of charge – to offer users a level of functionality that is unequaled in other centrally-provided systems. The launch of the app further demonstrates how Scotland is leading the way internationally in harnessing technology to make public sector purchasing more efficient.
