Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime & Coastguard Agency has awarded a contract to Capita Secure Information Solutions Limited for the development of a solution addressing the 'IP Echo' issue, which arises from the transition to an IP network in the RNIR programme. The contract, valued at £115,000, falls under the software package and information systems industry category. The procurement process was initiated through a single tender action due to its value being below the specified threshold. The tender period concluded on the 18th of December 2017, with the contract commencing on the 19th of December 2017 and running until the 29th of December 2017.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly those with experience in network technology and latency management. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that offer relevant expertise in developing software systems are encouraged to engage with similar opportunities as they align well with the needs of public sector organisations like the Maritime & Coastguard Agency. Such contracts can facilitate growth by providing access to larger government projects and enhancing visibility within the industry.
