This procurement falls under the IT software package category and is situated in the United Kingdom, specifically at postal code SG1 4AB. The procurement method employed was selective, with the purchase being a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period commenced on 15th May 2025 and will conclude on 14th May 2026. The award stage was reached on 15th May 2025, with the notice published on 18th June 2025. The contract, valued at £40,000 GBP, was awarded to SOFTCAT PLC, a large-scale supplier.
