Summary of the contracting process

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has recently completed the procurement process for a Desk Booking System, aligning with the software package and information systems category (CPV: 48000000). The tender, identified as SFO-FM-MATRIX-DESK BOOKING PLATFORM, was conducted through a direct award method and is valued at £16,968. The contract spans from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027 and will be delivered in London (SW1Y 5BS). Key dates include the tender period ending on 6th March 2025 and the award notice published on 18th March 2025.

This procurement presents promising opportunities for businesses specialising in software and information systems, especially those capable of providing desk booking solutions. However, it is noteworthy that the tender does not favour small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Large-scale enterprises like Matrix Booking Limited, which has been awarded this contract, are well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. Engaging in such tenders can facilitate their expansion and enhance market presence by securing governmental contracts.
