Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process relates to the extension of the Sixth Call Off Contract for the GOV.UK Verify service, managed by the Government Digital Service. The contract, valued at approximately £9,734,879, is for IT services encompassing consulting, software development, Internet, and support, and will be delivered in the UK. This process is currently at the award stage, having been signed on 8th June 2021, with a contract period of 900 days. The relevant amendments include the extension of the issuance period for creating digital identities until 22nd April 2022, reflecting the need for continuity as a new digital identity service model is developed.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the IT services sector, particularly those specialising in digital identity, software development, and consultancy services. Companies that can efficiently deliver solutions that integrate with governmental frameworks and show expertise in digital identity management would be particularly well-suited to compete for future contracts in this area. The focus on continuity suggests that there may be chances for collaboration or additional sub-contracting opportunities alongside the primary supplier, The Post Office Limited, as the government evolves its strategy for digital identity services.
