Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs is procuring specialist low-code technology leadership and configuration services for its low-code technology estate. The requirement covers programme oversight, supplier management, governance, assurance and delivery support, combining strategic leadership with practical configuration and delivery expertise. It is an IT consulting and support services requirement, including software development and related technical support. Services are to be delivered across the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is HM Revenue & Customs, based in London. The requirement is intended to provide coordinated leadership and assurance for HMRC’s low-code environment, helping manage suppliers, maintain governance and support successful delivery of low-code programmes and services.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 20 May 2026 to Atos IT Services UK Limited. The awarded value is £78.2 million. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 19 July 2031. The tender submission deadline was 14 January 2026 at 5pm. HMRC used a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The requirement was competed through a digital and agile low-code services framework. This is a single awarded requirement, with Atos recorded as the active supplier. The contract covers an initial three-year term with options for up to two further 12-month extensions, giving a potential maximum duration of five years.

This award demonstrates substantial public-sector demand for senior low-code leadership, configuration and delivery assurance, rather than standalone development alone. A credible future competitor would need to lead complex programmes, coordinate and manage other suppliers, establish effective governance, provide independent assurance and support delivery across a substantial technology estate. Relevant capability is likely to include strong low-code platform expertise, programme and service management, technical configuration, risk and quality assurance, and the ability to work within a large government organisation. The stated requirement is not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so suppliers should expect the scale, organisational capacity and delivery controls associated with a large prime contractor. Experience of framework-based public-sector technology work would also be commercially relevant.
