Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), based in London, has completed the procurement process for "Consular Salesforce Licences." This procurement falls under the IT software package category (CPV code 48517000), with a primary delivery focus on locations such as the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and globally. The selective procurement method was utilised, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 29th May 2026, with the subsequent award stage marked by an active award issued on 23rd June 2026. The contract will run from 27th June 2026 to 26th June 2027, valued at £2,867,556.57.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in IT software solutions, particularly those with the capability to supply Salesforce licences. While the contract was awarded to Salesforce UK Limited, large-scale enterprises with experience in supporting governmental IT systems would find such opportunities align with their operational strengths. Despite the focus on larger entities and the exclusion of SMEs and VCSEs from this specific procurement, businesses equipped to meet stringent government requirements and deliver high-value software packages may position themselves favourably in future tenders of similar nature.
