UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by National Highways focused on the renewal of Tenables software as part of the original CHARM agreement, with the contracting stage having been completed. The buying organisation - National Highways - operates as a public authority within central government, and is located in Guildford, United Kingdom. The procurement was realised through a direct method categorised as below threshold without competition, reflecting a streamlined approach for goods related to the IT software package industry category. Key dates involved the signing of the contract on 1st May 2025, with the contract period extending from 18th May 2025 to 17th May 2026.

This tender presents avenues for business growth primarily for entities specialising in IT software solutions, particularly large-scale providers such as Softcat PLC, which was awarded the contract. Given the focus on software renewal under existing agreements, businesses with robust IT infrastructure and experience in software provision would find such procurement processes suitable for competition. The direct procurement method highlights opportunities for companies capable of delivering specialised goods efficiently within established frameworks and performing under governmental contracts.
