Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has concluded the procurement process for extending its secure PSN connection with support from the Central Digital and Data Office (Cabinet Office). This selective procurement was executed via a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically an extension of an existing G-Cloud 12 contract. With a procurement ID of "tender_336828/1536068," the process concluded on 1st December 2025. The contract encompasses a comprehensive network service, valued at £21,400, and facilitates access across numerous regions, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, and the United Kingdom. The contract period spans from 22nd December 2025 to 21st December 2026, providing coverage across the "Networks" industry category.

This award presents growth opportunities for businesses adept in providing secure network solutions, particularly those familiar with government frameworks like G-Cloud.
