Summary of the contracting process

Coventry University has successfully completed a public procurement process for "Crowdstrike Incident Response Services," falling under the industry category of software packages and information systems. The contract was awarded directly to CrowdStrike Inc, a large supplier based in the United States, without competitive tendering, as it was below the threshold for such a requirement. The contract duration is from 1st June 2025 to 1st June 2026, and it was signed on 31st May 2025. The services provided involved an independent forensic investigation for insurance purposes. Coventry University is a sub-central government public authority located in Coventry, United Kingdom.

This project presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in cybersecurity and incident response services, particularly those with the capability to carry out forensic investigations. Companies equipped to provide robust cybersecurity solutions and those keen on partnering with public sector clients in the United Kingdom would find this tender process particularly beneficial. The nature of the procurement method, though direct in this instance, highlights a niche where other firms might also seek to offer their specialised services in future contracts, especially where expertise in software systems is required.
