Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office, located in London, England, has awarded a contract for the "Advanced Passenger Checks - Design & Build" project. This project focuses on developing technology essential for national infrastructure and security at the nation's borders, classified under the development of transaction processing and custom software (CPV code: 72232000). The procurement process was initiated as a tender and is now in the award stage, with the contract awarded to CACI Ltd. The procurement method was a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period closed on 26th January 2026, with the contract running from 2nd February 2026 to 31st January 2027. The project has a value of approximately GBP 4,272,123 and involves various locations including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those with expertise in transaction processing and custom software solutions for security applications. Although the procurement method was selective, businesses capable of participating in such framework agreements should consider similar future opportunities to grow their business, particularly those with large-scale operations and an ability to meet the complex requirements of national security and border management technology. Given the scale and scope of the project, smaller enterprises and voluntary community sector enterprises might find participation challenging, but keeping abreast of similar tenders could provide future business growth opportunities in this sector.
