Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Public Service Ombudsman procured payroll management services for delivery in England. The requirement is identified as payroll services, without further description of the service scope. The buyer is based in Manchester.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to CGI IT UK Limited on 16 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £217,000. The contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2031. The procurement used an open procedure, with a response deadline of 1 September 2026. The tender was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are stated in the published process information.

This award demonstrates the Public Service Ombudsman’s demand for payroll management services. Suppliers considering similar work for this buyer would need to deliver payroll services across England. The procurement used an open procedure and was marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller providers were considered eligible to compete. CGI IT UK Limited was selected, but the information available does not describe the capabilities or qualifications that secured the award. The requirement is specific to payroll services; providers whose business is not equipped to deliver payroll management are unlikely to be a close match.
