Summary of the contracting process

BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED procured cyber-safe software and related services, classified as software packages and information systems. The requirement sits in the services category and is intended for delivery in London, United Kingdom. The scope is described broadly as “Cyber Safe Software and Services”, indicating a technology requirement centred on cyber security software and associated services rather than standalone consultancy or physical works. Businesses relevant to this requirement include software suppliers, cyber security technology providers, systems integrators and service providers able to support the buyer’s information security needs in London. The buyer is BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED, based at Westminster Bridge Road in London.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Softcat Limited. The award date was 30 May 2026. The awarded value was £129,073, with the award contract running from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2029. The tender’s stated contract period was 15 August 2026 to 31 May 2029, while the awarded contract dates establish the period associated with the selected supplier. The procurement used a tender process, with the method described as “Other – Not Specified”. The requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Softcat Limited is the only recorded awarded supplier, and the procurement was not divided into lots.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED for cyber-safe software and supporting services at an organisation-wide technology-supply scale. A future competitor would need to provide credible cyber security software and dependable associated services, with the operational capacity to support delivery in London over a multi-year arrangement. The selected supplier was Softcat Limited, recorded as a large organisation, so competitors should be prepared to demonstrate comparable scale, financial and service resilience, and the ability to manage software supply, implementation or support as a joined-up service. Relevant firms are likely to include established technology resellers, cyber security solution providers and systems integrators with strong public-sector delivery experience.
