Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office is overseeing a completed procurement process titled "QAT034 - Capability Development," which focuses on specialist capability development services within the computer-related professional services industry. The contract, amounting to £3,329,704, was awarded to Testing Circle Limited. The procurement method was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The original tender period concluded on 9 August 2018, with the contract running from 13 August 2018 to 12 August 2020. The delivery addresses specified include the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This procurement presents valuable opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in computer-related services, to engage with government organisations like the Home Office. Companies with expertise in capability development and a strong track record in similar contracts would be well-positioned to compete effectively. The nature of the selective procurement process also suggests that businesses able to demonstrate their qualifications and relevant experience may gain significant advantages in future tenders of this kind.
