Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC), centres around the "Search Discovery and Risking Requirements" tender. This procurement falls under the services industry, specifically in IT services, with a significant focus on consulting and software development. The procurement method is a limited award procedure without prior publication, referencing Regulation 32(2)(c). The contract, valued at £8.9 million, was signed on 16th June 2021, and this notice aims to address the immediate funding needs stemming from Covid-19 project reallocations, allowing for continuity of key services while planning a future competition.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for IT consulting firms, particularly those experienced in software development and data analytics, to support HMRC in addressing its critical project demands. Companies capable of providing innovative technological solutions and project management services would be well-suited to compete for this contract, especially those that can deliver within the context of ongoing digital transformation efforts influenced by recent public health challenges. Engaging in this procurement could significantly enhance a firm's visibility and capability through partnership with a prominent governmental authority.
