Summary of the contracting process

Genomics England Limited, a public body within the health sector based in London, undertook a procurement process for a 12-month licencing agreement of Cloudflare software. This procurement, identified by the title "Cloudflare Licencing 2025-2026" and associated with the software package and information systems industry category, concluded with a contract awarded on 27th November 2025. The procurement was executed using a limited method without prior publication due to its below-threshold value of £112,593.58 and was compliant with an existing framework. The award, classified as complete, targeted the provision of network security for Genomics England's internet-facing services in the UK.

This tender provides significant opportunities for growth within the software licencing and IT security sectors, ideally suited for large businesses capable of delivering comprehensive software solutions. Bytes Software Services, a large-scale supplier in Leatherhead, successfully secured the contract, indicating that businesses with the ability to operate without prior publication in specialised frameworks should consider engaging in similar opportunities. Enterprises looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector software services would benefit from such procurements, particularly those offering innovative solutions in network protection and software licencing.
