Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency procured software and related services for its London-based operations. The requirement covers licences for Posit Workbench, Posit Connect and Posit Package Manager, together with associated technical support and licence management. It is a services contract focused on supplying and managing cloud software and supporting the organisation’s use of the Posit platform. Delivery is linked to the UK Health Security Agency’s premises at 10 South Colonnade, London, E14 4PU, and the wider United Kingdom. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was intended for a supplier able to provide the specified Posit products as an integrated licence, support and management service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Jumping Rivers Ltd. The award was made on 25 June 2026 through a selective call-off from the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 Framework Agreement, using its cloud software route. The contract value is £1,250,000, including the stated GBP currency. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027, covering a 12-month service period. The tender submission deadline was 30 June 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was evaluated as a framework call-off for the specified software licences, support and licence management requirement. The award is active and the tender status is complete.

This award indicates demand for suppliers that can provide the Posit software portfolio as a managed service rather than supplying licences alone. A credible competitor would need direct capability across Posit Workbench, Posit Connect and Posit Package Manager, with the operational capacity to manage subscriptions, entitlements and renewals across a public-sector customer. Strong technical support arrangements, responsive service management and experience of maintaining continuity for users would be important. Suppliers should also be able to work through the G-Cloud 14 cloud software framework and meet its call-off requirements. The contract was suitable for an SME, so a specialist software or data-services business with relevant platform expertise could compete effectively when comparable demand returns.
