Summary of the contracting process

The Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation (YPO) has completed a procurement process for a service titled "YPO - Website Content Delivery and Firewall". This project falls under the industry category of Software package and information systems. The procurement activity, now in the 'Award' stage, pertains to securing an annual subscription to protect YPO’s website from malicious traffic.

YPO, based in Wakefield, England, utilised an 'Other - Below threshold quotation process' for this tender, with the status marked as complete.
