Summary of the contracting process

The Intellectual Property Office, based in Newport, recently concluded a procurement process for the "Provision of Acsepto support," classified under supporting services for the government (CPV code 75130000). The procurement was conducted via a direct procurement method known as Single Tender Action (below threshold). The tender included product support and maintenance services, with an awarded contract value of £205,710. The tender period ended on 7th February 2025, and the contract commenced on 11th February 2025, lasting until 10th February 2028. The service delivery covers various regions including the United Kingdom, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and beyond.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in government support services to expand their expertise and market reach, especially large-scale enterprises. The specific procurement approach favoured direct engagement with a single supplier, Coexya (previously SWORD SAS), based in Paris. Companies looking to collaborate or subcontract with the Intellectual Property Office for similar future projects may significantly enhance their business portfolio and establish themselves in the competitive field of government-related services.
