Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England is driving a strategic initiative under its Oracle Cloud Implementation project, with the latest procurement process focusing on securing a strategic integration partner. The aim is to support the technical and change management aspects of this programme, which encompasses the Finance, Procurement, and Recruitment functions. This service procurement falls under the industry category of software implementation services and spans the United Kingdom. The procurement has reached the award update stage as of January 2026, with Version 1 Solutions Ltd emerging as a significant supplier. The contract, active since its signing on 20th June 2023, is valued at approximately £21.5 million GBP, running until the end of August 2029, with significant amendments made to accommodate evolving project needs.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for large-scale enterprises specialising in systems consultancy and software implementation services. Firms with experience in handling comprehensive cloud-based system integrations and who can manage extensive change management programmes would greatly benefit from engaging with this tender. Given the extensiveness of the Oracle Cloud Implementation, there is an opportunity for businesses to collaborate in enhancing the Bank's operational capacities, potentially securing extended contracts beyond the initial 55-month period. The use of a selective procurement process ensures that only highly qualified suppliers are considered, paving the way for mutually beneficial partnerships to drive sustainable business growth.
