Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office procured Zoom licences for its digital operations. This is a software service requirement, covering the provision of licences rather than software development or a wider IT systems project. Delivery is in London. The buyer is the Cabinet Office, and the procurement was managed as a call-off from a framework agreement. The requirement gives software and licensing suppliers a clear indication of the type of digital tool the Cabinet Office purchases: access to Zoom for its CO Digital function. This is a focused licence-provision requirement, rather than a broad technology transformation or support contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Videocentric Limited. The award date was 30 September 2026, and the contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The awarded value is £19,340. The buyer used a selective process as a call-off from a framework agreement. The submission deadline was 10 September 2026 at 13:00. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement data does not state an evaluation formula or detailed award criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be described more specifically.

For suppliers that missed this award, it provides evidence of the Cabinet Office’s demand for Zoom licences for its digital function, delivered in London through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply the required Zoom licences and be able to contract through an appropriate framework route. The selection of Videocentric Limited shows that a specialist licence supplier can fulfil this focused requirement; its recorded SME status also demonstrates that a small or medium-sized business won. Suppliers whose business includes public-sector software licensing are the closest fit. The scale indicated is a modest, time-limited licence requirement rather than a large systems implementation, so competitors should be equipped to fulfil a defined subscription or licence order efficiently.
