Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency procured a business analyst contractor for its C2P Programme. This is a professional services requirement for temporary personnel, involving business analysis work delivered for the agency. The stated contract is for one business analyst and the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Delivery may take place across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and other locations worldwide. The buying organisation is the Maritime and Coastguard Agency, based in Southampton. The work is therefore relevant to business analysis consultancies, specialist professional staffing firms and contractors able to support a public-sector programme across these possible delivery locations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 7 July 2026 to KEYSTREAM GROUP LIMITED. The award value is £79,345.92. The contract runs from 7 July 2026 to 30 November 2026, covering the stated six-month business analyst engagement. The requirement was procured through a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than as an open standalone competition. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026 at 11:00. The procurement was classified as supply services of personnel, with services as its main category. The published outcome identifies one active award and one supplier; no separate lots or additional award criteria are stated.

For suppliers that did not win this requirement, the award provides a clear indication of demand for business analysis capability within the Maritime and Coastguard Agency’s programme environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide an experienced business analyst contractor, demonstrate the ability to support a defined public-sector programme, and supply suitably skilled temporary personnel for a substantial fixed-term engagement. Experience of working with government bodies, understanding programme and business change environments, and the operational capacity to deploy personnel across the United Kingdom or other stated locations would strengthen competitiveness. Suppliers should also consider access to the relevant framework route, since this requirement was awarded through a framework call-off.
