This initiative falls within the IT services industry category and spans the United Kingdom. The procurement has transitioned through stages, starting with planning and now concluding with the award, as Deloitte LLP has been actively awarded the contract with an effective period beginning on 10th November 2025 and concluding on 9th November 2027, with options for extension up to November 2029. The procurement utilised a selective method, incorporating a competitive flexible procedure. The competition formally began with submissions due by 21st April 2025, prior to evaluating and awarding the contract by 16th July 2025.
