Notice Title

ICT Technology Supply, Solutions and Integration Framework for the UK Public Sector EEM 0084

Notice Description

A core objective of the proposed framework is to improve transparency, consistency, and control in ICT procurement, particularly in areas where pricing structures are complex, variable, or difficult to benchmark. This includes, but is not limited to: * Enterprise software licensing models * Cloud consumption and platform-based services * Subscription-based and as-a-service pricing * Integration, configuration, and associated service costs * Third-party supply chain margins and bundled solutions Public sector organisations often face challenges in validating costs, comparing options across suppliers and OEMs, and demonstrating value for money over time. The proposed neutral vendor model is intended to address these challenges by providing a single, accountable delivery partner that offers: * Access to a broad and competitive range of OEMs * Transparent and auditable pricing structures * Clear separation of product, service, and integration costs * Support for informed decision-making through solution design and market insight

Planning Information

EEM previously undertook Preliminary Market Engagement regarding a proposed framework. Following review of market feedback and further consideration of the proposed delivery model, EEM has revised the proposed framework structure and procurement approach. This notice relates to a new phase of market engagement seeking feedback on the revised framework design and proposed lot structure. Feedback received through the earlier engagement has informed the development of this revised proposal.
