Summary of the contracting process

The Intellectual Property Office procured IT security software: Burp Suite DAST Enterprise together with Burp Suite Professional, including 30 Professional licences. Burp Suite is used for dynamic application security testing and related professional security testing activity. The requirement is a software supply and licensing opportunity rather than construction, facilities management or consultancy. Delivery is associated with the Intellectual Property Office in Newport, Wales. The buyer is a UK public body responsible for intellectual property services. The procurement is relevant to software publishers, authorised technology resellers, licensing specialists and cyber-security suppliers able to provide Burp Suite Enterprise and Professional products to a public-sector customer. The requirement indicates demand for both an enterprise-level security testing platform and multiple individual professional-user licences.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. The Intellectual Property Office selected Bechtle Direct Ltd through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 24 June 2026. The awarded value was £35,863.09 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The tender submission deadline was 19 June 2026 at 12:00 BST. The requirement was treated as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The recorded tender value matches the awarded value. The award is active, and the selected supplier is Bechtle Direct Ltd.

This award provides a clear demand signal for Burp Suite security-testing software within the Intellectual Property Office. Suppliers competing for a future requirement from this buyer would need to provide the specified Burp Suite DAST Enterprise product and Professional licences, including the scale of 30 Professional licences, and support the associated licensing and fulfilment process. The route used was a framework call-off, so relevant framework access and the ability to transact through that route would be important. The successful supplier was a large technology provider, but the requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to smaller software resellers and cyber-security specialists with the necessary product supply arrangements. Credibility would depend on accurate licensing, dependable public-sector delivery and familiarity with application-security tooling.
