Classified under computer-related professional services, this tender was executed through a selective procurement method, specifically as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender phase concluded on 1st November 2025, with the contract period spanning from 1st December 2025 to 31st March 2026.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in computer-related professional services, particularly those with expertise in managing large IT migrations and resolving technical security issues in complex environments. Organisations aiming to engage with the Ministry of Defence should possess the capacity to adapt to stringent timelines and deliver under high-stakes conditions. Larger enterprises, given the scale and complexity of the involved tasks, are particularly well-suited for such contracts, although smaller firms with robust capabilities in niche technological fields may also find niches to capitalise upon in similar procurement exercises.
