Summary of the contracting process

The Government Actuary’s Department procured software consultancy to integrate its Salesforce and Access Financials systems. The work follows a Salesforce health check completed in 2026, which identified and scoped the integration opportunity. This is a focused systems-integration requirement rather than a general software support contract. The buyer is based in London, and the procurement lists delivery in the United Kingdom. The service category is software consultancy (CPV 72266000).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Methods Business and Digital Technology, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The award was made on 25 September 2026, for £115,635. The contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2027. The procurement used a selective route as a call-off from a framework agreement. The stated overall estimated value was also £115,635. The tender submission deadline was 2 October 2026. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs. The published information describes the requirement and its scope but does not provide separate evaluation weightings or selection thresholds.

For suppliers looking to compete when this buyer next requires comparable work, the award demonstrates demand for practical integration between Salesforce and a finance system, specifically Access Financials. Credible competitors would need to show they can connect and configure these platforms, understand how data and business processes move between them, and deliver the defined integration following an assessment of the existing Salesforce environment. The procurement was awarded through a framework call-off, so relevant framework access and experience delivering public-sector consultancy through that route would be commercially pertinent. The selected supplier was an SME, indicating that this requirement was delivered by a smaller business; the published scope does not set out further qualifications, accreditations or capacity thresholds.
