Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "AHE Development Platform Support" contract, conducted by the Ministry of Defence, has concluded its award stage. The project falls under the IT services category, specifically involving consulting, software development, Internet, and support, with a delivery region in the South West of the United Kingdom. The procurement was executed through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £335,000, commenced on 26th August 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2026. This important procurement reflects the Ministry's strategic investments into advanced IT infrastructure, with Cloud Native Ltd being the appointed supplier following an active award on 28th August 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, especially those adept in software development and support. While the contract has been awarded to a large enterprise, Cloud Native Ltd, the procurement method indicates ongoing needs that may require additional expertise, thus presenting opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies with a robust understanding of platform development and maintenance for governmental or large-scale operations would be well-suited to capitalise on similar future tenders. The Ministry of Defence's focus on leveraging technology for operational efficiencies underscores the potential for business growth within this sector.
