Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) procured delivery and support for its Enterprise Integration Services platform. The work is to maintain continuity and transform critical integration platforms that enable secure, high-volume transaction exchanges between HMRC systems and external organisations. This is specialist IT platform delivery and support work, rather than a general-purpose software or internet services contract. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Equal Experts UK Ltd on 7 August 2026. The awarded value is £132 million. The contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029. HMRC used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 4 February 2026. The published information describes the requirement and the successful supplier, but gives no evaluation criteria or separate lots.

This award shows substantial demand at HMRC for suppliers able to deliver and support enterprise integration platforms that underpin secure, high-volume transactions with external organisations. A credible competitor when this requirement next reaches the market would need to demonstrate the capacity and expertise to maintain business-critical integration services while transforming the underlying platforms. The work points to a need for dependable service continuity alongside delivery of technical change in an HMRC environment. HMRC marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, and the call-off route was through a framework agreement; suppliers should therefore be well placed to compete through an appropriate framework and to undertake work at this scale.
