Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) procured data virtualisation software under its Data Bridge requirement. This is a software procurement within IT services. The listed delivery locations include the United Kingdom and a delivery address in Blackpool; the listed locations also extend beyond the UK. DWP is based in Blackpool. The requirement is for data virtualisation software, rather than a broader, separately described IT service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Denodo Technologies Limited. The award date was 10 September 2026, and the contract period runs from 11 September 2026 to 11 September 2028. The awarded value is £985,209.50. The tender estimated a value between £985,209.50 and £1,477,814.25. The procurement was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with a submission deadline of 9 September 2026 at 5pm. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The available information describes a single software requirement and does not set out an evaluation basis beyond the procurement method.

This award demonstrates DWP demand for data virtualisation software at substantial scale, sourced through a framework call-off. For a supplier competing for a comparable requirement from this buyer, relevant experience supplying data virtualisation software and the ability to contract through an applicable framework would be commercially pertinent. The procurement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the selected supplier is itself an SME, indicating that this scale of requirement was not limited to large businesses. The stated requirement is focused on the software; the procurement information does not identify particular technical features, accreditations or delivery capacity thresholds, so these should not be assumed as conditions for a future competition.
