Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has completed a procurement process for IT technical support specifically related to antivirus and operating system patching for its Linux Unix Server estate. This tender, titled "IT Technical Support - Anti Virus," was awarded to Net Consulting Ltd on 14th September 2021, after a selective procurement method through a framework agreement. The contract has a value of £14,045 and is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The contract period extends from 14th September 2021 to 14th November 2021, with the tender period having ended on 13th September 2021.

This contract presents an opportunity for growth for businesses offering IT services, particularly those that specialise in cybersecurity and server management. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete in future opportunities within this category, as the MCA's procurement strategy shows a preference for engaging with smaller, more agile firms. The successful supplier, Net Consulting Ltd, exemplifies the potential for partnerships that can meet the specific needs of government agencies in the IT services sector.
