UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the provision of Security and Information Risk Advisor (SIRA) services has recently been concluded. The Single Source Regulations Office (SSRO), a central government public authority located at 100 Parliament Street, London, hosted this procurement under an open competition below threshold. This contract was awarded to HAMPDEN CONSULTANCY GROUP LTD on 30th March 2026, with a contract period starting on 1st May 2026 and potentially extending until 30th April 2031. The procurement was initiated in January 2026 and progressed through stages including tender notices and amendments, culminating in the award stage. The contract is aimed at supporting SSRO's role in managing security risks in alignment with UK Government policies, particularly relevant in the military equipment sector.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for SME firms specialising in IT consulting, software development, and information risk management. With an emphasis on both quality and price, businesses capable of delivering high-quality advisory services within the competitive pricing structure will find this a rewarding opportunity. Given the critical nature of security services required by the SSRO, firms with expertise in delivering government-standard information assurance are best suited to compete, providing them with an avenue to expand their portfolio within the public sector, particularly concerning military-oriented government contracts. Such engagements can enhance visibility and pave the way for future government collaborations.
