Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence as the buying organisation, with a tender titled "CAN-715840494-PS646" pertaining to IT services, including consulting, software development, and support. This contract is part of the services category and is specific to the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the contract awarded on 20th July 2026 and running until 31st March 2027. The procurement method was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement, with the total contract value amounting to £975,557.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in IT services, particularly those capable of meeting the Ministry of Defence's technical and operational requirements. Despite the high-value nature of the contract, it was not specifically marked as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, but the involvement of Mosaic Island, a supplier identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, suggests that similar businesses could successfully compete in future tenders. Companies specialising in IT consulting, software development, and internet support services may find opportunities for growth and expansion through participation in such government contracts.
