Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Limited, on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), procured DevSecOps monitoring and logging software licences. The requirement covers licence provision, with optional usage overage and additional testing added through a variation for an internal project. This is a software and information systems purchase, rather than a software development or managed-services contract. The recorded delivery location is Swindon, England. The contract was placed through a software licensing reseller framework, with UK Shared Business Services Limited acting as the buyer and Academia Ltd as the selected supplier.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Academia Ltd by direct award as a call-off from the Software License Resellers Agreement, Lot 4. The award date was 19 March 2026. The original licence requirement was valued at £83,792.02, with £7,000 for optional overage and a stated potential value of £90,792.02; following a variation for additional internal-project tests, the total call-off contract value is £92,744.64 excluding VAT. The contract period runs from 26 March 2026 to 25 March 2027. The notice identifies the procurement as suitable for SMEs. No separate scoring or evaluation criteria are described.

This award demonstrates demand from UKRI for DevSecOps monitoring and logging licences, including the ability to accommodate additional usage and testing needs. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement should be able to provide suitable software licences through an applicable reseller route and support the buyer’s requirements as they evolve, including additional testing for internal projects. The award went to an SME, indicating that this type of software supply is not confined to large suppliers. Credibility will depend on access to the relevant products and the capacity to fulfil a public-sector call-off through the framework route used here; the available information does not identify particular technical accreditations or specialist qualifications.
