The contract, titled "Denodo Data Virtualisation Licences & Professional Service," falls within the IT services industry category and supports the Department's data virtualization strategy. Located in London, United Kingdom, this direct award procurement is valued at over £5.2 million in net terms and commenced operationally on 8th November 2025, with formal contract signing completed on 12th December 2025. The procurement process has reached the contract award stage, with the contract set to run until 7th November 2028, and includes an option for a 12-month extension based on business need. This procurement follows a direct award method due to the critical role Denodo's technology plays in HMRC's operations, ensuring compatibility with existing services.

Notice Title

enodo 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.
