UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process, overseen by London Metropolitan University, focuses on the renewal of BoxPhish, a cybersecurity awareness platform. The procurement was conducted under a direct method, classified as "Below threshold - without competition," and falls under the industry category of software package and information systems. Located in London, the contract was awarded to Boxphish Ltd, a supplier based in Leeds, with the procurement stage already marked as complete. The contract, signed on 1st January 2026, spans from the 1st of January 2026 to the 31st of December 2028. This procurement falls under the award stage as of the 6th of February 2026, and the associated contract is active with a gross value of £42,300.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the IT and cybersecurity sectors. As the procurement was direct and below the threshold, it suggests potential for businesses offering niche services or products without the need for extensive competition. Companies that specialise in cybersecurity awareness, software solutions, or have expertise in IT services would be well-suited to provide similar offerings or to partner on future opportunities that might arise with London Metropolitan University or similar public authorities. The procurement process highlights the importance of building relationships with public bodies and understanding their niche requirements to gain competitive advantage.
