Summary of the contracting process

H M Revenue & Customs, located in London, has completed the procurement process for the "VAT PDF and CAS Proxy Service" under the industry category of IT services: consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement was conducted using a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically under the DALAS framework (PCR 2015). The service is to be delivered within the United Kingdom, with a contract period from 13th July 2026 to 12th April 2027. The award was made active on 10th July 2026, and the process was classified under the award stage as of 21st July 2026, with a total contract value of £495,000. The tender was tailored to support SMEs.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for enterprises engaged in delivering IT services, particularly those focusing on consulting, software development, and system support. Given the focus on SMEs, smaller companies with niche technological expertise in conceptual design, building, configuring, and testing digital services are well-positioned to leverage such contracts for business expansion. As the contract has already been awarded to Capgemini UK Plc, future opportunities may arise for businesses capable of providing comparable services in similar government frameworks.
