Summary of the contracting process

O F W A T has completed the awarding stage of a selective procurement process for the Data Platform Modernisation project, under the Programme Ocean - Technology Workstream, specifically focusing on the platform interconnectivity software package. The procurement, taking place within the services sector, spans across England and Wales. The competitive procedure incorporated negotiation strategies and targeted the selection of a capable collaborative delivery partner. The total contract value amounts to £650,000 GBP and Agilisys Limited has been selected as the supplier. Key dates associated with the contract include the tender period ending on 3rd October 2025, followed by the contract start and end dates ranging from 10th November 2025 to 9th August 2026.

This tender opens avenues for business growth within the technology and data services domain, providing lucrative opportunities for companies skilled in technical development and platform modernisation. Despite the selective nature of the process, businesses with experience in enhancing analytical capabilities and supporting in-house teams might find avenues for partnerships similar to O F W A T's collaboration with Agilisys Limited. Although the project does not actively favour SMEs or VCSEs, larger firms or those with robust technical expertise like Agilisys Limited could leverage their resources and capacity to meet the demands of such high-threshold negotiations and service deliveries.
