Summary of the contracting process

The Intellectual Property Office (IPO) has completed the procurement process for the "Altia Toolkit," a contract classified under the "Software package and information systems" industry category. This procurement, conducted through a selective method as part of a call-off from a framework agreement, has resulted in an award valued at GBP 47,887.56. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 10th February 2024 and the contract period spanning from 29th February 2024 to 28th February 2027. The tender covers multiple locations, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World. The process is currently in the award stage, with Bytes Software Services Ltd being the selected supplier.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in software and information systems to engage with a government entity such as the IPO. Although the procurement method was selective, it highlights the importance of being part of relevant framework agreements to access similar opportunities. The contract duration of three years with possible extensions offers stable revenue potential. While the contract is not specifically suited for SMEs or voluntary, community, and social enterprises, larger software service providers like Bytes Software Services Ltd are well-suited to meet the requirements and deliver high-value solutions.
