Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by UK Shared Business Services Limited focused on acquiring a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution and has reached the award stage. The UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) required this solution to enhance their software package and information systems capabilities. The procurement method used was a competitive quotation procedure, below the threshold, highlighting its limited nature. The initial tender process concluded on 25th September 2025, with the contract being awarded to Trustmarque Solutions Ltd on 26th September 2025. The project, set to commence on 18th October 2025, will span until 17th October 2028, with the delivery taking place in Cambridge, as indicated by the postal code CB2 0QH. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically targeting the software industry.

This tender presents promising opportunities for businesses specialising in software development and IT solutions, particularly those adept in mobile device management systems. Given the competitive quotation method, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in this sector could have been well-positioned to compete, despite its large business awardee. The project allows for collaboration with a leading research organisation, UKRI, offering a chance to establish or enhance relationships within the technology and research industry. Additionally, being associated with high-profile public sector procurement could provide considerable leverage for growth and reputation enhancement in future tender opportunities.
