Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of "EX0075-25 Cyber & Data Protection Training Modules," under the legal framework of the UK Public General Acts 2023/54. This tender, categorised under services and specifically software-related services (CPV: 72260000), was conducted using a direct procurement method below the threshold, and without competition. The services are to be delivered in Exeter, UKK43 region, United Kingdom. The contract was awarded to MetaCompliance Ltd, a supplier based in Londonderry, United Kingdom, on 27th January 2026, with an active contract period from 5th February 2026 to 4th February 2029, and potential renewal up to 2030.

This tender presents opportunities primarily for companies specialising in software and cybersecurity services, especially those offering training modules relevant for public sector entities. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) like MetaCompliance Ltd, which already secured this contract, highlight potential growth pathways for similar businesses aiming to strengthen their foothold in the public sector's technology enhancements. Companies equipped with the capability to deliver specialised training solutions in data protection and cybersecurity could find this a valuable entry point into working with local government bodies such as Devon County Council, potentially leading to future collaborations and contract extensions.
