This initiative falls under the industry category of Software-related services (CPV 72260000) and covers delivery within the United Kingdom, specifically to postal code CM20 1QX.

This contract presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses within the cybersecurity sector, particularly those capable of leveraging a framework agreement structure. Large enterprises, such as the awardee SOFTCAT PLC, may find this project advantageous due to the scale of operations required and the extended contract duration. Although the procurement process was not specifically tailored for SMEs or VCSEs, the significant contract value of £244,000 offers potential for substantial business expansion and partnership opportunities within this critical and rapidly evolving industry.
