Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by DEFRA, involves the award of the contract for the EUDP Legislation Workstream Support, focusing on general management consultancy services. This award was finalized with Methods Business and Digital Technology Ltd., the supplier, providing delivery support in the EU Delivery Programme's legislation workstream. The procurement method was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender stage is marked by the award date on 5th December 2025, with the completion status indicated as "complete", and the contract period starting on 8th December 2025, running until 27th February 2026. This service-based contract is valued at £77,000 and pertains to several locations, including the United Kingdom and various territories, highlighting its international scope.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those with experience in managing legislative workstreams and supporting delivery programmes. While the procurement method indicates a selective process through framework agreements, businesses adept at navigating such procurement avenues would be well-suited to compete. Although this particular contract is not suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, larger consultancy firms with the ability to manage international operations and deliver comprehensive legislative support are poised to grow through such engagements. Network Procurement at DEFRA serves as the primary contact point, ensuring a streamlined communication process with business entities interested in similar future opportunities.
