Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Records Management and Digitisation Service" was led by H M Revenue & Customs, based in London, England. This project focused on delivering digitisation services to reduce physical paper holdings, with a contract value of £14,000,000. Classified under the "Scanning services" industry category, the procurement was conducted through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Iron Mountain (UK) PLC, with a contract period from 5th May 2026 to 4th May 2031, following the tender period which concluded on 11th February 2026. The award stage was marked on 2nd April 2026, and the status of the tender is complete.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in records management and digitisation services. Large-scale service providers are particularly well-placed to compete for such contracts, given the project’s scale and specialised requirements. Companies capable of delivering high-quality scanning services across the United Kingdom could significantly benefit from similar future procurement opportunities. As the contract was awarded through a call-off from an existing framework, businesses listed on similar frameworks have a strategic advantage in engaging with public sector procurement projects of this nature.
