The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) in London has completed a procurement process titled "Contract award" under the industry category of software package and information systems (CPV: 48000000). The procurement was conducted using a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement with reference number RM6259, aimed at providing Vertical Application Solutions. This tender was finalized with NEC Software Solutions UK Limited as the supplier. The contract encompasses the hosting and maintenance of various software solutions, including NEC Foundation Layer Solution and Oracle SE2 RDBMS, with services covering regions including the United Kingdom, Europe, and worldwide territories. The contract period extends from 31st August 2024 to 31st August 2026, with the tender status marked as complete since 3rd October 2025.
