Summary of the contracting process

H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC), based in London, England, has concluded an open procurement process seeking a supplier for the development, operation, and maintenance of the Basic PAYE Tool and Paper Capture Tool. These IT services support employers with fewer than ten employees to manage payroll and tax calculations. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure above the threshold, with the tender period ending on 3rd March 2025. The contract, valued at £7,000,000, was awarded to VE3 Global Limited, and its implementation spans from 2nd May 2025 to 1st May 2030. This award was finalised on 6th May 2025, signaling the completion of the procurement process.

This tender provides significant opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs, with HMRC holding relevant intellectual property, facilitating an environment where smaller, innovative IT consultancy firms can thrive. This contract, especially beneficial to those specialising in software development and internet support services, allows businesses to expand by integrating into public sector operations, ensuring ongoing technological and payroll management enhancements. Businesses fitting this profile can benefit from increased operational scale and portfolio diversification by contracting with a major governmental entity like HMRC.
