Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) centred around acquiring Denodo Data Virtualisation Licences alongside professional services. The initiative is part of HMRC's strategy to enhance data virtualisation capabilities, critical for its departmental objectives. This direct award contract was valued at approximately £5.2 million, with a gross value of £6.2 million, and was awarded to Denodo Technologies Limited for the services category. Key dates include the contract's signing expected on 27th November 2025, with its initial term extending from 27th November 2025 to 7th November 2028, and options for renewal should there be further business needs. The data services are essential in ensuring fast access to vital departmental data, making this strategically significant within the United Kingdom.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specialising in IT services, including software development and data management. Companies equipped with expertise in consulting and data virtualisation services can explore extension opportunities or supply additional licences. The direct award method underscores the importance of providing compatible and continuation services, favouring companies like Denodo that can seamlessly integrate with and enhance existing systems. Large-scale businesses with significant technical capabilities in data virtualisation stand well-positioned to respond to future expansions or similar opportunities within HMRC or other governmental departments requiring continuity and specialised data services.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Denodo Data Virtualisation Licences & Professional Service

Notice Description

This request is for the procurement of Denodo licences and associated professional services to support the implementation of the Department's data virtualization strategy. The requirement includes 56 licences and professional services. This software plays a vital role in HMRC by enabling users fast access to data, supporting several strategic departmental objectives, and underpinning a number of essential services.

Procurement Information

Denodo plays a vital role in HMRC as it allows users fast access to data and is a key enabler to several Departmental strategic objectives and is used on various critical services. Moving to an alternative solution would result in the authority receiving services that are different from, or incompatible with, the existing services. This would create disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance that would impact business operations and not demonstrate commercial value or provide the most economically advantageous outcome.
