Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office, based in Exeter, England, has recently completed a procurement process for a Software License, related to software packages and information systems. This tender was classified under the services category, with a total value of £44,316. The procurement method used was a limited competitive quotation, which is appropriate for contracts below the threshold. The tender period concluded on 6 July 2022, and the contract commenced on 20 July 2022, running until 19 June 2023.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the software and IT services sector, particularly those that provide software licensing solutions.
