Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, titled "GCP - Interim Solution," has been completed by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) based in London, England. This procurement, concerning network infrastructure under the industry category of services, aims to provide GCP consumption for i.AI. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £150,000, spans from 27th March 2026 to 26th September 2026. The tender covered a wide range of locations, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the Rest of the World, embodying a global reach. Key dates in the process included the tender period ending on 26th March 2026 and the award date on 27th March 2026.
