Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for Alfresco Support and Maintenance, initiated by the Department for Education, involves providing professional services to assist in the migration of Alfresco content to the DfE SharePoint (Azure Platform). This initiative, part of The Machinery of Government Changes announced in July 2016, aims to transfer functions related to higher and further education from the former Department for Business, Innovation and Skills. The contract was awarded on 29th November 2016, and it will be active until 30th November 2018. This tender falls under the category of IT services related to software development and support, with its delivery extending to multiple regions, including the United Kingdom and European territories.

This opportunity for business growth is particularly favourable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in IT services, consulting, software development, and support. Companies that can demonstrate a strong capability in content migration and cloud-based solutions, specifically those familiar with Alfresco and SharePoint technologies, are well-positioned to compete for this contract. Engaging in this tender not only allows businesses to contribute to significant government initiatives but also opens avenues for ongoing partnerships with the Department for Education.
