Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs is procuring enterprise integration services covering platform delivery and support. The requirement is to maintain continuity while transforming critical integration platforms that enable secure, high-volume transmission of transactions between HMRC systems and external organisations. This is an IT services requirement, including software development, consulting and support (CPV 72000000). The work will be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is HMRC, based in London. The scope is therefore suited to businesses providing enterprise-scale integration platform services, rather than general IT support or low-volume application development. It concerns both ongoing operational support and delivery activity needed to develop and transform the integration capability on which transactions between public-sector systems and external bodies depend.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. HMRC awarded the contract to Equal Experts UK Ltd on 7 August 2026 for £132,000,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029. The tender submission deadline was 4 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The award is active and the tender is complete. The opportunity was structured as a services contract for the United Kingdom, with participation assessed through the framework call-off route. HMRC identified the requirement as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Equal Experts UK Ltd is the selected supplier.

This award demonstrates substantial, sustained demand from HMRC for enterprise integration platform delivery and support. Suppliers competing for comparable future requirements would need to operate at large-enterprise scale and show they can keep critical integration services running while delivering platform transformation. Credible capability would include secure transmission of high volumes of transactions, integration across complex internal systems and connections with external organisations, and the engineering, consultancy and software development expertise to support both live platforms and change programmes. Experience combining operational continuity with modernisation would be particularly relevant. The route also shows the importance of holding a suitable framework position or partnering with a framework supplier, since this requirement was awarded as a framework call-off rather than through an open tender.
