Summary of the contracting process

The Department for International Trade has completed the procurement process for the provision of Figma software licences to be used by DBT employees. This contract, valued at £73,080, falls under the industry-specific software package category and covers a global delivery area, including the United Kingdom, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World. The procurement was conducted through a direct method, specifically a single tender action (below threshold), beginning on 23 August 2024, and extending until 15 August 2026. The procurement stage is now in the award phase, with all key details confirmed as of 23 September 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software provision, particularly those experienced in delivering industry-specific applications like Figma.
