Summary of the contracting process

The Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) has completed a procurement process titled "Cyber Security - Email Protection". This tender falls under the software package and information systems category (CPV: 48000000) and targets cyber security email protection software. The procurement was carried out via a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract addresses delivery across multiple regions in the United Kingdom, including England, Scotland, and Wales, with a total value of £76,176. The tender award was finalised on 11th July 2024, and the contract period spans from 22nd July 2024 to 21st July 2028.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in cyber security software, particularly those focused on email protection solutions. SMEs are well-suited to compete in such tenders, especially due to ACAS's endorsement of SME participation. The awarded contract to Bytes Software Services Limited, an SME based in Leatherhead, Surrey, demonstrates the viability for smaller enterprises to secure significant government contracts, supporting business growth and expansion. The procurement's structured and predictable nature, leveraging a framework agreement, allows specialised businesses to align their offerings with the public sector's stringent requirements.
