Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Government Commercial Agency procured an IT Healthchecks (ITHC) service, classified as computer support and consultancy services. The requirement is for specialist assessment and related support of information technology environments. Delivery is in the North West of England. The buying organisation is the Government Commercial Agency, with Crown Commercial Service acting on behalf of the Government Property Agency and Cabinet Office. This is a public-sector technology services requirement rather than a goods supply or construction project. It is relevant to organisations providing IT health checks, technical assurance, computer support or consultancy services for government or other public-sector environments. The stated requirement is focused on the IT Healthchecks service itself, rather than a wider programme of technology procurement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an assisted procurement procedure. Bids closed on 6 March 2026. The award was made on 1 June 2026, with an awarded value of £750,000. The contract runs from 4 June 2026 to 3 June 2028. Two suppliers were selected: 3B DATA SECURITY LTD and Wavenet Limited. The award is active, and the contract documentation includes a signed contract and contract schedules. The procurement is for services and concerns a single requirement delivered in the North West. The published information identifies the procedure and successful suppliers, but does not set out a separate evaluation weighting in the available procurement details.

For a supplier that did not win, this award provides a clear view of the buyer’s demand for dedicated IT Healthchecks and computer support consultancy. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability to assess IT environments, identify weaknesses and provide clear, useful technical advice to a public-sector customer. It would also need the operational capacity to deliver consistently across the North West and to work within a sizeable, multi-year service arrangement. The selected supplier group includes both an SME and a large organisation, showing that relevant capability can be provided at different organisational scales. Businesses with established public-sector delivery methods, strong technical assurance teams and sufficient capacity for sustained service delivery are the closest fit.
