Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden procured a licence for the Hoxhunt Enterprise cyber security awareness and phishing simulation platform. The service supports Camden’s cyber security and organisational resilience programme by improving staff awareness, reducing susceptibility to phishing attacks, and helping meet cyber security good practice and regulatory obligations. This is a software platform licence, rather than a general cyber security consultancy requirement. Delivery covers locations across England, including London and the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, South East and South West.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been signed. SECON Cyber Security Ltd was awarded the single-lot contract on 6 July 2026. The award value was £180,000 excluding VAT (£216,000 including VAT); the signed contract value is £187,107.37 excluding VAT (£224,528.84 including VAT). The contract runs from 27 July 2026 to 27 July 2029. Camden used a competitive flexible procedure with a two-stage evaluation. Qualification questions were assessed pass/fail, with up to five suppliers able to proceed to stage two. Final evaluation weighted price at 80%, technical quality at 10% and social value at 10%. One supplier submitted a final-stage bid.

This award shows demand from Camden for a specialist enterprise platform combining cyber security awareness training with phishing simulations, supporting staff resilience and regulatory compliance. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide a mature, deployable platform that can engage staff, run realistic phishing exercises and support ongoing improvement in awareness. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate technical quality alongside clear pricing and measurable social value, since all three formed part of the evaluation and price carried the greatest weight. The work was awarded through a competitive, staged selection process, so bidders would need to pass initial qualification requirements before their technical, commercial and social value proposals were considered. The award to a cyber security supplier indicates the specialist product and service capability sought.
