Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, conducted by Cheshire East Council, involved the award of a contract titled "Security Operations Centre / Manage, Detect, Response (SOC)" within the security software industry category. The contract, awarded on 25th July 2025, focuses on providing security software solutions, specifically for a region located in UKD6. The procurement was executed through a limited method as an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, falling outside the usual directive scope. The tender stage was completed, and the contract had a total value of £294,882. Notably, a related lot was cancelled, but an active award was granted to NCC Group Security Services Limited.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in the provision of security software packages, particularly those capable of managing, detecting, and responding to security threats. Companies like NCC Group Security Services Limited, which was awarded the contract, demonstrate the potential for large-scale organisations to secure such contracts. Regional or local authorities, like Cheshire East Council, often seek solutions that ensure robust security measures, making this an attractive prospect for businesses specialising in cybersecurity services, particularly those with a strong presence in the UKD region. This contract highlights the advantage for businesses willing to engage in limited procurement processes and provide specialised services that meet specific organisational needs.
