Scottish Public Pension Agency (SPPA) organisations existing/live contracts: FOI release

Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.


Information requested

The contract register should display all the organisations existing/live contracts I would like the register to display the following columns/headings:

  1.   Contract Reference
  2.   Contract Title
  3.   Procurement Category
  4.   Supplier Name
  5.   Spend (Total or Annual)
  6.   Contract Duration
  7.   Contract Extensions
  8.   Contract Starting Date
  9.   Expiration Date
  10.   Contract Description [Please provide me with as much detail as possible.]
  11.   Contact Owner (Full contact details if possible.)
  12.   CPV codes/ProClass
  13.   Contract Reference

IMPORTANT

  1. For those organisation planning to make an exemption, the spend information I have requested is an overall figure and I am not requesting a complete breakdown of services relating to the spend.
  2. If the organisation has a CRM system or a similar system there should be a facility to download and extract contract data.
  3. You may forward me a Weblink to a portal to download the contract register, please make sure all of the organisation’s contracts are provided as doing prior research I have found that most organisations have only uploaded a small portion of all of their contracts.

Please do not think that this is the only information I require if you could provide me with more information that would be great.

 Contract Data/API Contact Details

 14.  Can you also provide me with contact details of the person responsible for the actual contract’s register or someone responsible for API? [Name, Job Title, Telephone, Email Address] At the very least provide me with their actual job title.

Response

Please see Annex A

An exemption under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA (personal information) applies to some of the information requested because it is personal data of a third party, i.e. names of individuals / email addresses, and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018.  This exemption is not subject to the ‘public interest test’, so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.
