Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Government Legal Department has concluded a procurement process for a security software package, classified under the CPV code 48730000. The awarded contract, valued at £1,238,040, was part of a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. Located in the United Kingdom, this tender reached the award stage on 20th March 2024, with the contract period set from 21st March 2024 to 20th March 2027. The procurement falls under the services category and was open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), though not to voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in providing robust security software solutions. SMEs in the technology and cybersecurity sectors would have been particularly well-suited to participate in the procurement, given its targeted structure to accommodate smaller businesses. With the Government Legal Department as the buyer, adhering to a framework agreement offers a reliable avenue for suppliers like Insight Direct (UK) Ltd, who have been awarded the contract, to engage in long-term partnerships within the public sector.
