Summary of the contracting process

UK Shared Business Services Ltd (UKSBS) procured Oracle professional services, classified as IT consulting and support services. The requirement is for professional services relating to Oracle; the published scope does not break this down into specific tasks or deliverables. The work is for UKSBS, with delivery located in the United Kingdom. It was procured through the Technology Services 4 framework, under its Lot 5a. This is a central government buyer, and the procurement was classified as a services contract. The opportunity therefore concerns suppliers able to provide Oracle-focused professional services to a UK public sector organisation, rather than a purchase of Oracle software or a general IT services requirement.

The procurement has been awarded to Zensar Technologies (UK) Limited. The award is dated 30 September 2026 and is valued at £825,000 excluding VAT (£990,000 including VAT). The stated contract period runs from 13 October 2026 to 12 October 2028, with an optional 12-month extension that could extend the period to 12 October 2029. The extension is subject to business requirements and budget approval and has a maximum value of £200,000 excluding VAT. There was one lot. UKSBS used a selective procedure to make a competitive award under the Technology Services 4 framework, Lot 5a. The data records the award as pending, while the process is reported at the awarded stage.

For suppliers that did not win, this award confirms UKSBS’s demand for Oracle professional services through the Technology Services 4 framework. The selected supplier is a large technology business, indicating that experience and capacity to deliver professional services at substantial scale may be commercially relevant when this buyer’s requirement returns. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can provide Oracle-focused services and meet the buyer’s operational needs across a UK delivery context. The procurement was competed within a named framework lot, so a supplier’s eligibility and ability to participate through the relevant framework route would also matter. No specific Oracle products, technical accreditations, staffing levels or evaluation weightings are identified in the available requirement details.
