Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence procured digital technology and engineering services for its Land Domain Software Factory. This is an IT services requirement supporting the software factory; the published scope does not break the work down into specific deliverables. Delivery is described as covering the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The buyer is the Ministry of Defence. The requirement is relevant to suppliers providing digital technology and engineering services for defence land-domain software environments, including firms able to work across the stated geographic coverage.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Ministry of Defence selected CACI Ltd, Scan Associates Ltd, i3Secure Limited and Fuzzy Labs Limited through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 8 October 2026 and is valued at £1,105,052.50. The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The initial tender deadline was 7 September 2026 at 10:00. The tender was categorised as services and identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award information does not allocate separate values or scopes to the four suppliers.

The award demonstrates Ministry of Defence demand for digital technology and engineering capacity to support a Land Domain Software Factory, with work distributed across four suppliers, including three SMEs. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable capability in software engineering and digital technology for defence land-domain systems, and the capacity to contribute as part of a multi-supplier delivery team. Experience delivering across a broad geographic footprint would also be relevant. The route used here was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, so suppliers seeking similar Ministry of Defence work should be positioned to compete through the relevant framework route. The procurement is identified as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist firms can be relevant participants.
