Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions in England has completed the procurement process for a contract titled "Service Award Substitutes (SAS)," focusing on IT services, including consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement stage is at the Award phase, with the contract awarded to Accenture (UK) Limited. This contract, which is under a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement, covers a wide range of geographical areas including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and other regions globally. The contract period starts on 22 May 2024 and ends on 21 May 2026. Key dates include the tender period ending on 2 April 2024 and the award date of 21 May 2024, with a final published notice on 20 August 2024. The total contract value is £4,875,000, and it is particularly suitable for SMEs, though it is categorised as a large-scale contract.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for businesses specialising in IT services. SMEs capable of offering consulting, software development, and support services might find this contract particularly compelling due to its broad geographical scope and significant budget. Moreover, the specific requirement for awarding to a single supplier under a framework agreement allows businesses to provide comprehensive and unified service solutions, potentially enhancing their project portfolio and market credibility. Businesses that are equipped with robust IT solutions and that can operate across multiple regions would be well-suited to compete for similar future opportunities.
