Summary of the contracting process

WM5G LIMITED, based in Birmingham, United Kingdom, initiated a tender process titled "AI Proposition Development" under the industry category of IT services, with an emphasis on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The procurement aimed to co-design AI propositions focused on health & care, adoption, and connectivity. However, the tender, identified as IT1844 on Bravo, was eventually cancelled as of 14th January 2026. The decision was made because the bids did not meet critical quality criteria, and a more focused tender will be reissued. The initial tender process had an open procurement method with a deadline for submissions by 5th December 2025, and the contract period was intended from 1st January to 31st March 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specializing in IT services, particularly those adept in AI development, consulting, and framework management. SME suitability was indicated, suggesting that small and medium-sized enterprises could find the requirements accessible, especially if geared towards innovative solutions in AI. Interested businesses should prepare for a refreshed opportunity with a more precise scope, enhancing their proposal alignment and focusing on quality criteria to succeed in the reissued tender. With a procurement approach allowing electronic submissions, this tender process presents a transparent and competitive opportunity for companies looking to expand their partnerships in the public sector AI landscape.
