Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the provision of urgent business support was conducted by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in the United Kingdom. This initiative, classified under the industry category of IT services, encompasses the delivery of consulting and software development services. The procurement method was a limited tender procedure due to extreme urgency, with the award signed on 12 January 2022, and the overall process is now complete. The contract value amounts to £467,325.60.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT consulting and support services, particularly those that can respond swiftly to urgent requirements. Given that only one bid was submitted, this scenario most likely favours larger firms with existing resources and relationships, such as BAE Systems Applied Intelligence (UK) Limited, which was the awarded supplier. Businesses with expertise in developing tailored IT solutions would find this an advantageous market entry point, particularly in response to critical, time-sensitive demands from governmental agencies.
