Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has completed a procurement process for the LAA Digital Portal System, which is aimed at configuring an Identity and Access Management service for the Legal Aid Agency's digital operations. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically database services, and was pursued through a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £5,100,000, was awarded to Version 1 Solutions Limited on 11th April 2025, with the contract period running from 14th April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The delivery locations include the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the Rest of the World, while the procurement stage is at the award stage.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses in the database services sector, particularly those capable of providing comprehensive digital solutions for government agencies. Firms that can demonstrate experience in Identity and Access Management services would be well-suited to compete in such procurements, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) since the procurement notably supports such entities. Engaging with frameworks and developing services that align with governmental digital transformation needs can ensure competitive positioning in future opportunities with similar scope and scale.
