Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office procured a managed service for the Criminal Justice Data Spine programme, classified as business analysis consultancy services. The service provides a dedicated team to establish and run a new cross-departmental programme of work. Initial activities include putting programme management processes, products and governance in place against defined milestones, developing a longer-term resourcing strategy and preparing the programme’s business case. Over time, the service may form part of a blended delivery model involving civil servants, contingent labour and other managed-service providers as resourcing needs develop. This is a services requirement delivered in London. It is relevant to consultancies and managed-service providers with experience of setting up government or complex cross-departmental programmes, rather than suppliers offering standalone products or construction and facilities work.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 22 May 2026 at 12:00. The Home Office awarded the contract to Deloitte LLP on 6 July 2026 for £2.5 million, with a contract period from 13 July 2026 to 12 July 2027. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £2.5 million. The award is active. The opportunity was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The requirement was treated as a services procurement, with business analysis consultancy as its primary classification. The award followed a framework route rather than an open tender, so access to the relevant framework was central to participation.

This award indicates demand for a substantial managed team able to establish delivery discipline around a complex, cross-departmental justice data programme. Suppliers seeking comparable work with the Home Office would need credible programme management capability, including governance design, repeatable processes, management products and milestone-led delivery. They would also need strong business analysis and the ability to develop a robust business case for a major public-sector programme. Experience of shaping resourcing models would be important, particularly where permanent civil servants, contingent labour and other managed services must work together. The requirement suits organisations able to provide senior advisory, delivery and operational capacity as one service, while remaining flexible as the programme structure develops. SMEs and VCSEs were identified as suitable, although the call-off route means relevant framework access and public-sector delivery experience would strengthen a future proposition.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Criminal Justice Data Spine Delivery

Notice Description

A managed service is required to provide a dedicated team responsible for establishing a new cross-departmental programme of work. Initially the focus will be on getting programme management processes, products and governance up and running (as per milestones table) as well as considering a longer-term resourcing strategy for programme delivery. The creation of a business case for the Programme will also be a key task. It is likely that longer term the managed service will be part of a blended resource model, where some team members may be civil servants, contingent labour or from other managed services arrangements. This will be determined as the resourcing requirements develop as part of the programme delivery structure.
