Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) procured licences to maintain vendor support for PowerCenter, a critical software component underpinning its Decision Service. The software provides extract, transform and load (ETL) and batch-processing capabilities, orchestrating decision-processing workflows and integrations across multiple HMRC tax regimes. This is a software support and licensing requirement within IT services. The stated delivery country is the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to CDW Limited. HMRC used a selective route as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 10 September 2026. The awarded value is £699,794; the procurement's estimated range was £699,794 to £1,049,691. The contract period runs from 19 September 2026 to 18 September 2028. The submission deadline was 28 August 2026. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot-level breakdown or evaluation criteria are recorded in the process details.

For suppliers of enterprise data-integration software and vendor support, this award demonstrates HMRC demand for licensing and maintained support for a critical PowerCenter component used in tax decision services. A credible competitor would need to secure the relevant software licences and provide dependable vendor-backed support for ETL and batch processing, where interruptions could affect decision workflows and integrations across several tax regimes. The requirement was delivered through a framework call-off, so framework access and the ability to respond to a call-off would be important commercial credentials. HMRC marked the procurement as suitable for SMEs, and the selected supplier is itself an SME, showing that this scale of specialist software support can be supplied by a smaller business. The opportunity centres on this product and its operational role, rather than general IT support.
