Summary of the contracting process

The Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA), based in Bristol, England, has completed the award stage for a procurement process titled "Microsoft Dynamics 365 Upgrade and Migration Services." This tender falls under the IT services category, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, internet and support. The contract entails a call-off from G-Cloud 14, with a selective procurement method for a total value of £267,750. It encompasses locations including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The contract commenced on 15th December 2025, with a completion date set for 30th April 2026. The award was officially made to Node4 Limited (UK) on 18th December 2025, and the award notice was published on 16th January 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for companies experienced in IT consulting and systems integration, particularly those with expertise in Microsoft Dynamics 365. While the call-off was made directly from a framework, businesses positioned to compete in such environments can still draw insights for future opportunities. Typically, large-scale businesses, due to the nature of the contract, would be more suited given VCA's preference for non-SME and non-VCSE entities, but it also signals a demand within public sector agencies for cutting-edge IT solutions, presenting a potential market opportunity for growth-oriented IT service providers. This contract emphasizes the strategic importance of staying connected with major framework agreements to take advantage of lucrative direct awards.
