Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA), headquartered in Bristol, as the buying entity. This completed tender, titled "Application licensing and support - V1PSA," falls under the 'services' category with a focus on financial systems software. The service is to be delivered across various locations including the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement was carried out using a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract period starting on 1st December 2025 and ending on 30th November 2026. An active award was made to OneAdvanced Limited on 28th November 2025, valued at £80,062.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in application licensing and support, particularly those with experience in financial systems software packages. However, it has already been awarded to a large enterprise, OneAdvanced Limited. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) may not find this tender directly suitable due to the scale and procurement method employed. Nonetheless, involvement in framework agreements like RM6259 provides pathways for businesses to align with similar opportunities in the future, fostering growth by building expertise and credentials in public sector contracts.
