Summary of the contracting process

The Security Industry Authority (SIA) has concluded a procurement process to secure a Microsoft Products and Licensing contract for 2026. This contract, valued at £6,822,464.86, has been awarded to Phoenix Software Limited. The procurement, classified under the "Software package and information systems" industry category, specifically supports the SIA's user community in the United Kingdom with Enterprise Agreement licensing and Azure consumption usage. The procurement method employed was a call-off from a framework agreement via the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Framework, RM6098. The contract period commenced on 1st April 2026 and will continue through to 31st March 2029. The award was formally completed on 20th March 2026, and the details were published on 30th April 2026.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the software provision and licensing sector, particularly those equipped to engage with large-scale contracts such as this. Companies specialising in information systems and able to deliver within a framework agreement setting are particularly well-suited to such opportunities. Additionally, the inclusion of suitability criteria for SMEs and VCSEs indicates potential growth avenues for smaller organisations and social enterprises seeking to expand their portfolio within public sector procurements. This contract not only reinforces Phoenix Software Limited's standing in the market but also sets a precedent for similar entities aiming to collaborate effectively with government bodies like the SIA.
