Summary of the contracting process

The British Business Bank, located in Sheffield, has completed a procurement process for Salesforce licenses under the project titled "Salesforce licenses - Future fund 2025/26 licenses." This tender falls under the industry category of license management software package (CPV 48218000) and license management software development services (CPV 72212218). The procurement was conducted using the G Cloud 14 direct award process and has already reached the award stage. The contract, valued at £250,000, started on 14th February 2025 and will end on 13th February 2026, covering various delivery locations including the UK, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the rest of the world.

This procurement offers a significant opportunity for businesses involved in software license management and development, particularly those capable of providing robust solutions on a global scale. Large-scale suppliers with expertise in handling comprehensive software licensing packages will find this tender particularly suited to their strengths. Although the British Business Bank does not specify suitability for SMEs, it highlights inclusivity for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), which suggests potential for social impact-focused organisations to engage and compete in such tenders. The direct award process via G Cloud 14 ensures a streamlined procurement, removing barriers for capable suppliers to establish a longstanding relationship with a prominent public financial institution.
