Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office procured an IT delivery and support partner for its I-LEAP programme. The work falls within IT services, covering consulting, software development, internet and support services. Delivery is in London. The procurement is for services and is described as a delivery and support partnership; the published scope does not break the work into individual service tasks. Sopra Steria Limited was selected to provide the services. This requirement is relevant to suppliers able to deliver and support a substantial IT programme for a central government department, rather than firms offering unrelated general consultancy or standalone technology products.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Sopra Steria Limited on 30 May 2024. The contract runs from 1 June 2024 to 31 December 2028. Its awarded value is £12,360,537. The original estimated procurement value was £11 million. The contract was extended, moving its end date to 31 December 2028. The Home Office used a selective procedure to make a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 3 November 2023 at 17:00 UTC. No lots are described. The award records an active contract; no separate evaluation criteria or weighting are stated in the procurement details.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows that the Home Office buys multi-year IT delivery and support for I-LEAP through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to combine programme delivery with dependable ongoing support, and demonstrate relevant capability across IT consulting, software development and internet services. The selected supplier, Sopra Steria Limited, is recorded as a large business, indicating that the contract was placed with a supplier able to operate at substantial scale. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to established IT services providers, or consortia able to bring together the necessary delivery breadth and capacity for a central government programme in London.
