The contract is set to commence on 6th October 2024 and will initially run until 5th October 2026, with a potential extension of up to 24 additional months. Key dates include the tender period end on 30th August 2024 and the award period starting on the same day. The open procedure is being utilised for this procurement process.

Businesses with a focus on service quality and competitive pricing (with a 70% emphasis on quality and a 30% emphasis on cost) would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, suppliers must be either Cyber Essentials certified or have a core membership with the South East Cyber Resilience Centre, ensuring a commitment to cybersecurity. This tender offers substantial growth potential, particularly for businesses looking to establish or expand their foothold in the public sector.
