More detail on requirements will be provided upon the signing and returning of the NDA. This is not a call for competition or an invitation to tender. The Home Office reserves the right to amend the scope, procurement route, commercial model and timetable following market engagement and internal approvals. For the purposes of this Preliminary Market Engagement Notice, the estimated contract value has been calculated based on information currently available. This figure is indicative only and is subject to change. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to amend, update, or vary the estimated value and makes no commitment or guarantee as to the final contract value in any future procurement. The proposed CPV codes are intended to reflect the current anticipated scope of the requirement, including digital professional services, low-code development, automation, systems integration, and associated consultancy services. The final list may be amended following market engagement. The Home Office reserves the right to amend the details provided at Market Engagement process at a later date if needed. Any changes will be updated on the Preliminary Market Engagement Notice and communicated through Jaggaer.

Planning Information

This Preliminary Market Engagement relates to the Home Office’s potential future Low-code/Power Platforms procurement. The requirement is currently under development. The purpose of this engagement is to test supplier appetite, understand market capability, gather views on potential delivery and commercial models, and support the Authority in refining the requirement and procurement approach. The engagement process will be conducted in the stages outlined below. Further phases of engagement may be introduced prior to the launch of any formal procurement process. 1. To express an interest in participating, suppliers must first be registered on the Home Office eSourcing Suite. Registration can be completed online at: https://homeoffice.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.html Please note that, in order to register, suppliers must have a valid DUNS number (provided by Dun & Bradstreet) for the legal entity that would enter into any resulting contract. Suppliers wishing to participate should submit an Expression of Interest email using the following details: Email address: Megan.Varah@homeoffice.gov.uk Email subject line: Expression of Interest – LC/PP – NDA Request – [DUNS Number] The email must include: • Supplier name (as registered on Companies House) • DUNS number • Jaggaer Account ID • Contact details for the nominated representative, including: • Name • Job title • Email address • Contact telephone number 2. Once the above steps have been completed, suppliers will be granted access to the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) event within Jaggaer. 3. Suppliers will then be required to complete and return the NDA via Jaggaer for Authority countersignature by 18/06/2026. 4. Suppliers whose NDAs have been countersigned will be granted access to the Request for Information (RFI) from 16/06/2026 via Jaggaer. Information provided at the RFI stage should not be shared with anyone that is not bound by the NDA. The RFI will provide additional information regarding the Authority’s current thinking, the strategic and operational context, the indicative scope of the potential future requirement, and the areas on which supplier feedback is being sought. Information provided within the RFI will be high-level and indicative only. It should not be interpreted as a final specification, statement of requirements, procurement strategy, or commitment to procure. All documentation will remain draft and subject to amendment. The Home Office reserves the right to amend the documentation and may choose not to adopt all feedback received. 5. Suppliers will have the opportunity to submit clarification questions. The deadline for submission of clarification questions is 13:00 18/06/2026. 6. The Home Office will provide answers to the clarification questions by 17:30 on 19/06/2026 7.
