Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia procured consultancy support for business continuity, crisis management and IT disaster recovery. The requirement covers business and management consultancy services, including support intended to help the university prepare for, respond to and recover from disruptive incidents affecting its operations and information technology. Delivery is in the East of England, with the buyer based at Norwich Research Park in Norwich. This is a professional services requirement for a specialist resilience, crisis response and IT recovery consultancy. It may suit firms that advise organisations on continuity planning, emergency management, operational resilience, incident response and the recovery of critical technology services.

This procurement has been awarded and the process is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:00. Deloitte LLP was awarded the contract on 3 August 2026 for £119,300 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 November 2026. The procurement was categorised as services and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier is Deloitte LLP. The published requirement describes consultancy support for business continuity, crisis management and IT disaster recovery.

This award demonstrates demand from the University of East Anglia for specialist support spanning business continuity, crisis management and IT disaster recovery. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability across these connected disciplines, rather than expertise in only general management consulting or only technical recovery. Relevant suppliers should be able to assess operational risks, develop and maintain continuity arrangements, support crisis decision-making and coordinate recovery of essential IT services. Experience of working with complex organisations and translating resilience plans into usable incident and recovery procedures would strengthen a supplier’s position. The route to market was a framework call-off, so framework access and the ability to respond through that route would also matter.
