Summary of the contracting process

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has completed the procurement of a "Strength Deployment Inventory" training software package, with a focus on services in this industry category. The procurement was executed through a direct procurement method referred to as single tender action below the threshold. The process concluded with an award on 28 June 2024, and the contract runs from 2 July 2024 to 1 July 2027. The core service will be delivered to an address in E14 4QZ, London, with the procurement primarily aimed at providing the CMA access to the Core Strengths SDI platform. The total contract value is £30,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs, particularly those specialising in training software and related services. By engaging with large public sector buyers like the CMA, businesses can enhance their portfolio, build credibility, and gain stability through long-term contracts. Firms with expertise in high-quality training platforms and those able to demonstrate value in improving organisational strengths would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. Additionally, the direct procurement method creates a streamlined process, enabling smaller firms to efficiently engage in public sector contracts.
