Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has issued a modification notice for the Managed LAN and On-site Support Services (MLOSS) contract, initially awarded to British Telecommunications PLC. The services include IT consulting, software development, Internet and support, with a focus on the management and maintenance of network connectivity across DWP sites within the UK. This contract, in the 'active' stage since July 2021, has undergone multiple amendments to accommodate unanticipated changes in internal projects and delays in transitioning to the new Unified Network Access Service (UNAS) contract. The latest modification, dated December 2024, adjusts the total contract value to £13,340,119.51, reflecting the necessity for additional services due to extended project requirements. The contract period runs from 7th July 2021 to 6th November 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specializing in IT services, particularly those with capabilities in LAN management and on-site support. Companies that can provide seamless integration with existing network infrastructure and quick adaptation to evolving project scopes would be well-suited to compete. As DWP faces complex technical challenges, suppliers who can ensure interoperability and avoid system duplication stand to benefit. With a substantial contract value and an extended project timeline, this procurement process represents a lucrative growth opportunity for experienced IT service providers aiming to expand their footprint in the public sector.
