Summary of the contracting process

The Civil Nuclear Police Authority (CNPA) along with the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) has completed a procurement process for the provision of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, under the industry category of data storage services. The procurement method used was a direct award through the Crown Commercial Services RM6285-Back Office Software 2-Framework Agreement. The contract award was made on 17th December 2025, with a contract period starting from 10th December 2025 and ending on 9th December 2026. The location of services extends to various territories including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and the rest of the world. This tender is specifically suited to larger scale businesses as it includes a significant value threshold of GBP 63,000.

Oracle Corporation UK Limited emerged as the awarded supplier, indicating the opportunity for large enterprises that specialise in cloud infrastructure and data storage services to enter or expand their presence within these global locations. The procurement, although primarily focused on the Civil Nuclear Police Authority’s requirements, opens up avenues for businesses in tech and cloud services to leverage their capacities in sophisticated data storage solutions tailored to public sector needs. However, the contract is not explicitly designed for SMEs and VCSEs, which limits the participation of smaller entities or those in the social enterprise sector. This strategic alignment with large-scale providers exemplifies a pathway for expanding operational reach and fostering high-value client relationships within the public sector.
