Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process led by High Speed Two (HS2) Limited, located in Birmingham, United Kingdom, involves the direct award of a contract to CONTRUENT LIMITED for the provision of software support services relating to the Contruent Enterprise (PRISM) system. This system plays a pivotal role in project lifecycle management, offering secure access to various project management components like budgeting and performance measurement. The procurement falls within the services category under a utilities special regime and was awarded via a direct procurement method due to the proprietary nature of the software, which cannot be provided by alternative suppliers. The contract commenced on 9th May 2025 and is set to conclude on 8th May 2027, with potential renewal options extending to 2029 if necessary.

This procurement presents notable opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like CONTRUENT LIMITED, especially those specialised in software support services for proprietary systems. Businesses in the software consultancy sector and with capabilities in providing tailored IT solutions could leverage similar tenders to expand their reach and portfolio. The involvement in high-profile projects such as those managed by HS2 Limited offers significant growth potential, not just through immediate contract work but also by enhancing reputational value and fostering long-term relationships with public authorities.
