Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by London Stadium 185, aimed at securing managed firewall services to enhance the stadium's IT network infrastructure's security and resilience. This procurement falls under the category of data security software development services, specifically in the services industry category, and covers the delivery location within the UKI4 region, United Kingdom. The process, executed under procurement method "direct" due to being below the competition threshold, has progressed to the Award stage, with the contract awarded to Exponential-E Limited on 20th February 2026. The contract is valued at £133,415, with a gross amount of £160,098, spanning from February 2026 to the end of March 2029.

Businesses specialising in IT security and managed services, particularly those with capabilities in delivering comprehensive firewall solutions, will find opportunities for growth in such contract engagements. These tasks require expertise in supply, configuration, implementation, and ongoing support, making it an attractive proposition for firms equipped with robust data security practices. Although the awarded supplier, Exponential-E Limited, a large-scale company, managed to secure this contract given the direct procurement method, similar future tenders might provide opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises with competitive service offerings in public and private sectors.
