The tender process has reached the award stage, with the contract period commencing on 12th June 2020 and concluding on 11th June 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for large businesses specialising in computer-related professional services to engage with the government sector. Companies with expertise in providing advanced IT solutions and customer notification systems would be well placed to leverage this opportunity, potentially leading to further contracts and partnerships within the public sector. The competitive landscape may be limited due to the selective nature of the procurement method employed, thus creating avenues for established large firms to enhance their portfolio through government contracts.
