This contract falls under the services category and is classified under CPV code 72222300. The procurement was conducted using a direct award method, with the contract valued at £29,458. The contract period begins on 1st August 2024 and ends on 31st July 2025. The contracting authority is based in London, located at 2-4 Cockspur Street, SW1Y 5BS.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in information technology services, particularly those capable of providing high-quality software solutions. While this specific contract was awarded via direct award to a large supplier, FACTIVA LIMITED, businesses looking to compete in similar tenders should focus on building a strong track record in IT services and forming relationships with government entities such as the Serious Fraud Office. Companies that are not small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find more opportunities in comparable direct awards, given the nature and scale of the requirements.
