Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has recently completed a tender process for the renewal of Microsoft M365 E5 software licences, valued at approximately £190.6 million. The procurement, classified under the CPV code for software packages and information systems, involved a selective method with a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 19th June 2019, and the contract commenced on 21st June 2019, extending until 30th April 2022. This initiative enhances software capabilities across British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and other regions, including the UK.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs). Companies that can demonstrate expertise in software provision and a capability to meet the MOD’s requirements for MS365 licences would be well positioned to engage in future contracts. As the demand for digital transformation continues to rise, this sector remains ripe for growth, encouraging businesses to expand their offerings in cloud-based technologies and software licensing.
