Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Pensions Regulator procured a professional NServiceBus licence service for two years. The purchase is a Professional Tier, one-year licence charged per 15 endpoints, covering the period from July 2026 to July 2028. It falls within IT services, including software support and related technical services, and is categorised as a services procurement. Delivery is associated with The Pensions Regulator’s premises at 125–135 Preston Road, Brighton, BN1 6AF, in England’s South East. The requirement is centred on providing access to NServiceBus at the stated professional tier and endpoint scale, rather than on a broad IT transformation or general consultancy engagement. The buyer is a UK public-sector regulator, and the selected supplier is NServiceBus Ltd, an SME based in Israel.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Pensions Regulator used a direct procurement route described as a single tender action below the applicable threshold. The contract was awarded to NServiceBus Ltd on 2 July 2026 for £12,395.16, including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 2 July 2026 to 2 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 2 July 2026. The award is recorded as active. The requirement was treated as a single service package: a Professional Tier NServiceBus licence for 15 endpoints, covering two years. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one awarded value, with no separate lots or alternative awards recorded.

This award shows a defined demand for enterprise messaging and integration software licensing at a professional service tier, with capacity for 15 endpoints and support over a multi-year operating period. Suppliers competing for similar requirements should be able to provide NServiceBus licensing directly or through an authorised channel, understand endpoint-based licensing, and support a public-sector customer’s continuing software use. Credibility would come from strong knowledge of NServiceBus products, reliable licence administration, renewal management and technical support arrangements. An SME profile is compatible with the requirement, so smaller specialist software suppliers may be well placed where they can demonstrate product authority, dependable service delivery and the ability to maintain coverage for a regulated public body. The buyer’s single-tender route also indicates a focused, product-specific purchasing need rather than a broad IT services framework.
