The procurement method utilised was direct, below threshold and without competition, as there were no technically acceptable alternatives on the market. The award was officially dated 20th March 2026, with the contract period running from 31st March 2026 to 31st March 2027.

This contract presents growth opportunities specifically for large businesses in the software development sector, offering automated DevOps solutions. Companies with expertise in industry-specific software packages and associated professional services are well-suited to compete for similar future contracts.
