Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Transport procured Happy Signals licences for IT Service Management, described as the provision of Ivanti licences. This is a software and information-systems service, covering licensing rather than physical works or goods. The requirement is intended to support IT Service Management activities for the department. Delivery is in London, United Kingdom. The Department for Transport is the buying organisation. The opportunity was classified under CPV 48000000, covering software packages and information systems. It was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while voluntary, community and social enterprises were not identified as suitable. Businesses supplying Ivanti or Happy Signals licensing, and related IT service-management software services, are the most directly relevant potential providers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 1 August 2026, and the contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The estimated value range was £70,626 to £80,000. The contract was awarded on 30 July 2026 for £80,000 to BOXXE LIMITED. The award is active and covers the same period. The process therefore records a completed framework call-off rather than a new open-market competition. The selected supplier is responsible for providing the Ivanti and Happy Signals licensing service to the Department for Transport.

This award indicates a defined Department for Transport requirement for specialist IT Service Management licensing, with a scale suited to an established software licensing provider and accessible in principle to SMEs. A credible future supplier would need strong knowledge of Ivanti and Happy Signals products, licensing models, renewals and entitlement management, together with the ability to support the department’s IT Service Management environment in London. Experience supplying public-sector or similarly controlled organisations would help demonstrate dependable service, accurate administration and compliance with framework call-off procedures. Suppliers should also be able to manage the full licensing lifecycle and provide clear commercial and technical support. The buyer’s use of a framework makes framework access and effective call-off participation important capabilities for competing when this requirement returns.
