This contract, classified under the database software package industry category, covers services required in multiple locations, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the Rest of the World. The procurement was initiated through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract's total value is £8,099,784, and it spans from 21st July 2025 to 31st March 2028, following the tender period which ended on 14th July 2025.

This tender presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for large-scale technology firms capable of delivering complex database software solutions. Companies like GLIDER TECHNOLOGY LIMITED, who successfully secured the contract, stand to benefit from high-value, long-term engagements with a pivotal public sector client like the Ministry of Defence. While small and medium enterprises (SMEs) may find direct participation challenging due to the scale of the project, there may be opportunities to engage as subcontractors or suppliers in collaboration with larger corporate partners. This arrangement fosters a collaborative environment for businesses to expand their expertise and footprint in the public sector services domain.
