Summary of the contracting process

The Government Digital Service is procuring ongoing support and maintenance for the Petitions Service, valued at £81,360, in the IT services sector, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and Internet support. The contract period spans from March 16, 2019, to March 15, 2020. This procurement has been initiated under a selective method, resulting from a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on March 4, 2019, and the tender process was completed prior to the end date of March 10, 2018.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) experienced in IT consultancy and support services. Businesses that specialise in providing 24/7 technical assistance and have the capability to maintain software applications would be particularly well-positioned to compete for similar contracts in the future. The framework agreement structure also allows for additional opportunities as further extensions may be available beyond the current contract period.
