Summary of the contracting process

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has recently completed a procurement process for its Case Management System (CMS) titled "SFO-IS&T-CMS-Clue Software". This initiative, classified under the document management system category (CPV 48311100), was conducted through a restricted procedure above threshold, targeting SMEs. Located in London, England (postcode SW1Y5BS), the buying organisation aims to implement Clue Software starting from 10th March 2025 until 10th March 2035. Completed on 8th January 2025, the tender period set the foundation for awarding the contract, which values at GBP 4,548,750. The award announcement was published on 17th February 2025, resulting in an active status for the upcoming partnership.

This tender opens significant opportunities for companies specialising in document management systems, particularly those offering cloud-based and configurable solutions. Firms focusing on public sector bodies or those active in the criminal justice marketplace are well-suited for the SFO's complex operational needs. The successful bidder, Clue Computing Company Limited, an SME from Bristol, will benefit from a long-term partnership with the SFO. The project promises technical configuration and implementation responsibilities while ensuring the software is adaptable to future changes. Such ventures highlight potential growth and sustainability, making this contract a lucrative prospect for similarly positioned businesses.
