Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), located in London, has concluded a public procurement process for information technology services under the title "Orbit tactical changes - awarded contract". This procurement, valued at £4,750,000, was conducted via a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically intended for case management tactical changes within FCDO Consular Services. The procurement culminated in an award on 24th July 2025 with the contract period slated from 18th August 2025 to 17th August 2027. This process covered various regions including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World, and was in the "Award" stage at the time of reporting.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in information technology services keen on expanding their reach in public sector contracts. Given the substantial contract value and the requirement for advanced IT support, large-scale companies with the capability to handle extensive service provision across diverse geographical locations would be well-suited to compete in such tender opportunities in future calls. NTT Data UK Limited has successfully secured the contract, reflecting the competitive advantage that established entities can leverage in the public sector procurement landscape.
