Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured the installation of a board support system for the IMA Board and other committees. The software is intended to maintain industry-equivalent services for distributing and scrutinising board and committee papers. This is a software support service (CPV 72261000), covering implementation of the system and the associated service needed to support paper governance. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers of board portal, committee management, governance or secure document-distribution software able to support geographically dispersed public-sector users.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, with tenders due by 10 June 2026 at 23:59. The award was made on 9 July 2026 to Azeus UK Limited for £36,095. The contract runs from 10 July 2026 to 9 July 2030. The estimated procurement range was £28,030 to £36,095. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the contract covers the installation and provision of the board support system for the Ministry of Justice’s IMA Board and other committees.

This award confirms demand within the Ministry of Justice for specialist board governance software supporting controlled distribution, access to and scrutiny of papers. A credible future competitor would need a mature board or committee support platform, implementation capability and the ability to provide reliable software support over a multi-year public-sector service. The requirement particularly favours suppliers that can manage sensitive governance documents, structured review workflows and access for multiple committees and locations. A small or medium-sized supplier can be competitive, as the procurement was explicitly suitable for SMEs. Suppliers already positioned on the relevant framework, or able to secure framework access, would be best placed to use the same route.
