Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA), located in Bristol, England, seeking services related to "Enterprise and Technical Architecture Support" under the CPV code 72000000 for IT services. This was a direct award completed under the Crown Commercial Services' G-Cloud 14 framework. The process followed a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract commenced on 16th August 2025 and concluded on 31st October 2025. Delivery locations included the United Kingdom, some British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, and parts of the rest of the world. The tender was in the award stage with Integy Ltd, a large supplier, being the contract awardee.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the IT consulting and support sector to grow, particularly those skilled in enterprise and technical architecture. The reliance on a framework agreement can be advantageous for businesses already recognised or capable of qualifying under such frameworks, though it may not be suitable for SMEs or VCSEs given its scale. Engaging in contracts like these can position businesses to tap into a wide range of geographical markets, fostering considerable growth potential and enhancing their portfolio with government-based projects.
