Summary of the contracting process

The tender process for the "Provision of Cyber Security Services" was initiated by the Department for Business & Trade, located at the Old Admiralty Building in London. This process, categorised under public authority in the central government sector, was conducted as a direct procurement method below the threshold without competition. The procurement aimed to acquire technical services within the cyber security domain, concluding with the award of the contract on 23rd May 2025. The geographical coverage of the project is the United Kingdom, and the key period for the contract extends from 6th May 2025 to 5th June 2025, with a possibility for extension until 5th July 2025.

The awarded contract opens significant opportunities for businesses engaged in cyber security consultancy and related technical services. Although the procurement was completed without competition, similar future contracts may present prospects for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in cyber security, seeking to collaborate with central government departments. Accenture, a large supplier, was successfully awarded the contract, highlighting a demand for robust and established service providers in this field. Businesses looking to expand their clientele within the government sector could benefit from staying informed about upcoming tenders and optimising their service offerings to meet governmental requirements in cyber security.
