Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) procured a contingent Agile Project Manager for its AI Transformation Programme. This is temporary project-management personnel work, supporting an artificial-intelligence transformation programme. The work is associated with DHSC in London.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Berkeley Square IT Ltd on 23 September 2026. DHSC used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated procurement value and awarded contract value are both £81,795. The contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 23 September 2026 at 12:00. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers competing for similar DHSC work, this award demonstrates demand for contingent Agile Project Manager capacity tied to an AI transformation programme. A credible competitor would need to provide a project manager suited to agile delivery in this specific programme context, and be able to supply through the relevant framework call-off route. The successful supplier was an SME, although the opportunity was marked as unsuitable for SMEs; this award alone does not establish that the requirement is routinely accessible to smaller businesses.
