Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Certificates 2026-27" has been completed, with the Student Loans Company Limited acting as the buying organisation. This tender was aimed at the software package and information systems industry, specifically within the United Kingdom. It followed a selective procurement method, characterised as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender had a contract period commencing on 10th June 2026 and concluding on 9th June 2027. The process reached the award stage with the award date set on 5th June 2026. The total value of the contract was £117,156.29. Key players included the buyer, the Student Loans Company Limited, headquartered in Glasgow, Scotland, and the supplier, Computacenter (UK) Limited.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth for large businesses capable of delivering software packages and information system solutions. The SSL certificates requirement underscores the ongoing need for robust cybersecurity measures across public sector organisations. While this specific contract has been awarded to Computacenter (UK) Limited, companies with established capabilities in similar IT services and a comprehensive understanding of framework agreements could find valuable opportunities in pursuing similar procurements. Large-scale suppliers with the capacity to provide such critical services efficiently are well-suited to compete in this sector.
