Summary of the contracting process

The United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory Limited bought VEEAM backup software to support its information systems. The requirement is classified as software and information systems (CPV 48000000) and is recorded as a services procurement. Delivery is for England, with the buyer based at its Central Laboratory in Seascale. The scope is focused on provision of VEEAM backup software rather than a broader software or managed-services requirement. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are suppliers of VEEAM products, software licensing and associated backup solutions for organisational information systems. The requirement may suit providers able to supply and support this type of software within the National Nuclear Laboratory’s operating environment.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender process completed after the submission deadline of 4 April 2026 at 17:00. Academia Limited was awarded the contract on 24 April 2026 for £65,000 including the stated awarded value. The contract runs from 24 April 2026 to 23 April 2027. The procurement’s estimated value range was £15,622.60 to £65,000, in GBP. The award is active. The published information records one supplier and one requirement, for the provision of VEEAM backup software to the National Nuclear Laboratory. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined requirement for VEEAM backup software within the United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need direct capability to supply VEEAM software, understand backup and information-system requirements, and fulfil a framework call-off efficiently. Relevant businesses are likely to include software resellers, licensing specialists and providers with established access to VEEAM products and the capacity to support an organisational customer across England. The stated suitability for SMEs indicates that smaller software specialists may be able to compete, provided they can meet the framework’s conditions and deliver the required software supply.
