Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Transport (DfT) has completed a procurement process for a novated contract providing records management services. Originally held by Shared Services Arvato, this contract has been transferred to Iron Mountain UK PLC. The contract, valued at £15,233, covers records management of paper documents along with their transportation if required. This process falls under the 'File Storage Box' industry category, with delivery locations including the UK, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and other international regions. The procurement was executed through a contract novation following the tender period which ended on 31st May 2024, with the contract period running from 1st July 2024 to 30th June 2025.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in records management, particularly those capable of handling and transporting sensitive materials across multiple locations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, given the procurement's suitability criteria. Companies with experience in providing comprehensive file storage solutions can leverage this opportunity to expand their services and establish a foothold in governmental contracts. Such engagements not only enhance business credibility but also open avenues for further collaborations with public sector entities.
