Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office, located in Exeter, England, has completed a procurement process for software licences under the category of software package and information systems.

The tender period ended on 19th July 2018, with the subsequent contract period running from 20th July 2018 to 19th July 2019.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for SMEs specialising in software development and information systems to expand their business.
