H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has completed the procurement process for the Corporation Tax Discovery and Design Activity, awarding the contract to Capgemini UK PLC. This contract, valued at £960,680, falls under the industry category of IT services, including consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement was executed through a direct award using a Call Off Framework. The contract began on 22 December 2025 and is set to conclude on 30 April 2026. The procurement stage at this point is in the Award phase, having been formally published on 28 January 2026.

This project represents a key opportunity for companies in the IT sector, particularly those with capabilities in system design and discovery, to engage with a major government entity like HMRC. Although this contract was awarded to a large enterprise, businesses offering specialised IT services are candidates for similar future opportunities, especially if they have a track record of delivering innovation and efficiency in software development and consulting. Companies aiming to extend their footprint in government contracts should prepare to meet the high standards required by HMRC and other similar entities.
