This procurement, under the tender reference HSE/T4778, involves the migration of seven websites currently hosted by five different providers to a secure platform with options for future improvements and redesigns. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with all necessary documentation accessible online. Key dates include a submission deadline on 16th September 2025 and an award period concluding on 8th October 2025. The service covers multiple regions across the UK and falls under the services category, specifically IT services, with a contract value of £897,600 (including VAT).

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those capable of handling complex website migrations and support for public sector bodies. Ideal candidates would include SMEs and companies with a strong focus on quality and social value, as the criteria for award heavily weigh these factors at 70% of the evaluation. With a contract potential of up to five years, businesses adept in both traditional website hosting and more complex scientific tools or databases will be well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity. The procurement method being open further enhances access for a wide range of enterprises capable of delivering secure and innovative IT solutions.
