Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) recently completed the procurement process for a one-year subscription to the CisionOne Monitoring Essentials package, falling under the 'Subscription services' industry category. This procurement, which was classified under services, was a direct award without prior publication, due to its value being below regulatory thresholds. The awarded contract was signed on 13 March 2025, with the award officially recorded on 25 March 2025. The procurement is specifically geared towards entities within the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity for companies that provide subscription-based monitoring services, particularly those that can offer competitive pricing and meet the compliance requirements of direct award contracts. Large-scale service providers like Cision Group Limited, which secured this contract, are well-suited to compete in such procurements due to their established market presence and capability to handle substantial contractual requirements. Businesses aiming to expand their footprint in government-related subscription services would find similar tenders advantageous.
