Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes Council has completed a selective procurement process to award a contract for "Archiving and Storage" services, under CPV code 79995100, valued at £96,000. The procurement method was a call-off from a framework agreement, and the process has now reached the award stage. The contract was awarded to IRON MOUNTAIN (UK) PLC on 27th May 2025 and will run from 25th September 2025 to 24th September 2028. The services are to be delivered in the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically in Milton Keynes. This contract presents opportunities in the services industry category, and organisations classified as SMEs or VCSEs were considered suitable during the tender process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in archiving services to expand their portfolios through long-term contracts with local government bodies. Although IRON MOUNTAIN (UK) PLC, a large-scale company, was successful in this tender, the process welcomed participation from SMEs and VCSEs, indicating potential future opportunities for smaller or community-focused enterprises to compete. Companies involved in documentation management, data storage, and similar services would find this type of procurement beneficial for growth by establishing and strengthening relationships with public sector administrative bodies like Milton Keynes Council.
