Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office procured business continuity management and enterprise risk management software and related supply services for use in the South West of England. The requirement covers software supporting organisational resilience, continuity planning and the identification, assessment and management of enterprise risks. It is classified as miscellaneous software packages and computer systems, with the main procurement category being services. The buyer is the Met Office, based in Exeter. The selected solution is intended to provide an integrated platform for managing business continuity and enterprise risk activities rather than a general-purpose software purchase. Businesses supplying specialist resilience, risk, governance, compliance or continuity-management software may find the requirement relevant, particularly where their products support public-sector operational risk management.

This procurement is complete and was awarded on 17 July 2026 to RISKONNECT, LTD. The award value is £173,697. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 August 2028. The procurement used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically G-Cloud 14. The tender submission deadline was 17 July 2026. The contract was awarded for the full business continuity management and enterprise risk management software requirement to RISKONNECT, LTD. The recorded contract period extends beyond the stated 2026–2028 title period to 31 August 2028. The process outcome is an active award to a single supplier, with the Met Office as buyer.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from the Met Office for specialist software combining business continuity management and enterprise risk management. A credible future competitor would need a mature platform that supports continuity planning, risk identification and assessment, risk treatment, governance, reporting and ongoing oversight in one service. Experience supplying complex organisations, particularly public-sector or operationally critical environments, would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses should also be able to operate through the relevant government cloud framework route, understand framework call-off procedures and provide dependable implementation, support, security and service management. The opportunity was marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so specialist smaller providers with strong product capability may be able to compete alongside larger software suppliers.
