Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office procured a software solution to facilitate, host and manage Subject Access Request workflows. The service covers data storage and processing required for the SAR service, including automated redaction, document collation and secure document storage to support compliance with Subject Access Request obligations. This is a software-enabled service within the software package and information systems category, delivered for the Cabinet Office in London. The requirement is classified as a service and concerns the provision and operation of the solution rather than general software supply alone. It is relevant to providers of privacy, information governance and records-management technology that can support secure, structured handling of SAR cases and associated documents.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Aimii Limited on 17 August 2026. The awarded value is £387,700 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. The opportunity was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with submissions due by 15 August 2026 at 5pm. It was treated as a single requirement rather than separate lots. The Cabinet Office identified the procurement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Aimii Limited, an SME, was selected as the supplier and the award is active. The procurement was evaluated through the framework call-off process.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the Cabinet Office for a specialist Subject Access Request management capability at organisational scale. Suppliers likely to compete credibly for a future requirement will need a mature platform for end-to-end SAR workflow management, secure document storage, controlled data processing, automated redaction and efficient collation of records. Experience supporting data protection compliance and handling sensitive personal information would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to integrate with existing information and records systems while maintaining strong security controls. The requirement was suitable for SMEs and was won by an SME, indicating that a focused specialist provider can compete without being a large systems integrator. Evidence of reliable implementation, service support and scalable performance would strengthen a comparable proposition.
