Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) is seeking a provider for the renewal of VEEAM Software subscription and support, a service essential for the backup of their virtual technology systems. This tender falls under the "Software package and information systems" category and is being conducted through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services RM6068 framework. The tender was awarded on 13th December 2021, and the contract period extends from 24th December 2021 to 23rd December 2022, with a total contract value of £41,251. The opportunity has a clear emphasis on continuity of service for the agency's operational needs. The tender was formally issued before 26th November 2021, marking the end of the procurement process.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly those offering support and maintenance for virtual backup systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in IT services would be well-positioned to compete, given the ongoing necessity for robust technical support in public sector contracts. The renewal of this contract indicates consistent demand for similar services, allowing successful bidders to secure ongoing work and potentially expand their service offerings within the public sector community.

Notice Title

VEEAM Software Subscription/Support renewal

Notice Description

VEEAM is the chosen on-premise virtual technology backup solution for MCA and is implemented in both HQ Spring Place (Corp Net) and the NMOC (Blue Light) networks. Although we own the licences, support is charged annually and gives us version upgrades and 24/7 technical support. This support and maintenance is required to support our virtual, on premise servers. The licenses cover the VEEAM setup in both Blue Light and Corporate networks and is used to backup MCA systems that exist in this environment. There has been no change to the requirement since the last renewal and this will provide continuity of service for a further year. This opportunity was a Further Competition run under Crown Commercial Services RM6068 framework, open to all Lot 3 suppliers.
