Summary of the contracting process

The British Transport Police initiated a procurement process titled "Microsoft Azure Overage" to procure information technology services, specifically focused on Microsoft Azure Overage Usage, through a call-off from a framework agreement. This procurement, classified under CPV code 72222300, was conducted using a selective procurement method. The procurement process reached the award stage, with the contract awarded to Phoenix Software Limited on 27th May 2026, following a tender period that concluded on the same date. The contract, valued at £525,000, is set to begin on 1st June 2026 and will run until 31st May 2027. The British Transport Police, located in London, England, served as the buying organisation, with Jake Grieves as the contact point.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in the information technology services sector, particularly those specialising in cloud services and software solutions. While the contract was awarded to a large-scale company, smaller enterprises can still explore similar opportunities by participating in framework agreements and tenders. Companies positioned to offer competitive pricing and innovative solutions within the IT services industry may find growth potential in such procurement processes, especially those capable of efficiently managing overage usage for cloud services like Microsoft Azure.
