Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by HM Land Registry for the "Mainframe Hardware Refresh and Support" project has reached the award stage. This contract involves mainframe hardware installation, migration services, and maintenance support with a focus on the mainframe hardware industry. The contract is valued at approximately £9.83 million and is set to start on 1st October 2025, continuing until 31st December 2029. The procurement method used was selective, with a call-off from a framework agreement, and the procurement activity was based in Croydon, United Kingdom. The key award was made on 25th September 2025 to Specialist Computer Centres Plc - SCC, indicating the strategic selection process of the contracting authority.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses that specialise in IT solutions, particularly those focusing on large-scale mainframe systems and support services. SMEs were considered suitable for competition, offering smaller innovative businesses the chance to partner or compete with larger firms. Businesses that supply or manage extensive hardware installations, perform migration services, or provide robust support systems, stand to benefit significantly from engaging in similar or future tenders in this category. Such contracts not only provide significant financial gains but also offer a platform for expanding technical capabilities and fostering long-term partnerships with public sector entities like HM Land Registry.
