The public procurement process involves NHS Digital, which is based in Leeds, England. The organisation is seeking to renew the "Nessus renewal 2019" contract for security software, with a total contract value of £56,000, allocated between its Corporate ICT and SSD teams. The renewal process is classified under services and follows a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. This contract was awarded on 26 March 2019, following a tender period that ended on 1 March 2019, and it is set to commence on 30 March 2019, lasting until 1 April 2020.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in security software services.
