Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Nimbus Portal Support and Maintenance Licencing" was conducted by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to acquire installation, configuration, support, and maintenance services for their portal. The procurement method used was selective, via a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with a total contract value of £17,000. The tender period ended on 10 April 2020, and the contract is set to commence on 17 April 2020, lasting until 17 April 2022. The location of the services required is London, with the postal code E14 4QZ. This procurement falls within the software consultancy services category.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in software consultancy and maintenance services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) given the suitability status. Companies that can demonstrate experience in portal support and maintenance, coupled with a strong understanding of the dynamic purchasing systems, would be well-placed to compete. The recent award of the contract to BlackRabinbow Ltd. highlights the demand for such services, opening avenues for similar businesses to engage with the CMA in future procurement opportunities.
