Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business and Trade commissioned services for Phase 2 of the Fair Work Agency programme. The requirement covers discovery and migration of National Minimum Wage staff data and applications from HM Revenue and Customs into the Fair Work Agency. This is a data management and application migration service, rather than the supply of physical goods or construction work. Delivery is associated with London and the United Kingdom, with the procurement also identifying delivery coverage across the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The work is relevant to suppliers experienced in public-sector data migration, application transition and the handling of operational staff information.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made to Through Technology on 17 July 2026 for £1,500,000. The contract period runs from 17 July 2026 to 16 July 2027. The original tender had a submission deadline of 16 July 2026 at 12:00 BST. The Department for Business and Trade was the buyer, and Through Technology is the selected supplier. The requirement was classified as a service for data management and identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the requirement demonstrates a defined public-sector demand for complex organisational data and application migration. Credible competitors for a future requirement from the Department for Business and Trade would need to combine discovery capability with practical migration delivery, including the assessment, transfer and validation of staff data and business applications. Experience of moving live or operational systems between government organisations would be relevant, as would strong information governance, data quality control, testing, transition planning and stakeholder coordination. The successful supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that a business of this scale and specialism can compete through a framework call-off route.‌‌
