UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Border to Coast Pensions Partnership Limited, a public authority in the sub-central government category, involves a direct contract award to Moody's Analytics UK Limited for a licence agreement concerning corporate and structured finance instrument data. The process was initiated without competition as it was below the threshold and encompasses the procurement of goods in the form of licence management software packages, with delivery set in the United Kingdom. The contract was signed on 17th March 2026, and the contract period extends from 30th March 2026 to 29th March 2027, featuring a gross contract value of £96,346.80 in GBP.

This procurement presents opportunities for businesses specialising in financial software solutions and associated services, as it underscores the demand for specialised data management tools within the public sector. While this specific tender concluded with Moody's Analytics UK Limited, firms offering competitive, innovative, and tailored software packages may find similar future opportunities for collaboration with public authorities. Businesses with expertise in licensing agreements, particularly those aimed at enhancing corporate and structured finance operations, would be well-suited to engage in similar procurement processes.
