UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) initiated a procurement process titled "HMRC NewCo IT4IT Hackathon and Delivery," focusing on IT services within the United Kingdom. The tender aimed to enable a new operating model, integrating strategic portfolio management, agile planning, and DevOps. Originally planned and initiated in January 2026, the procurement reached the planning stage, where supplier briefings and qualifications were outlined. The procurement method was described as a competitive flexible procedure involving open stages for supplier qualification and a Hackathon event aimed at delivering innovative solutions leveraging ServiceNow capabilities. The process highlighted a contract value of £954,000, spanning from April 2026 to April 2028.

This procurement provided significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialised in IT services, consulting, and software development. It was well-suited for companies experienced in large-scale IT4IT implementations, agile methodologies, and with proven ServiceNow expertise. The Hackathon stage demanded active participation and showcased the procurement's preference for a collaborative approach in developing minimum viable products. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations were encouraged to participate, thereby promoting diverse business growth and innovation within the government procurement landscape. The competitive nature of the tender called for technical proficiency and strategic innovation, making it a lucrative opportunity for qualified businesses to contribute to HMRC's modernisation efforts.
