Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has completed a procurement process for a subscription to an online library supplied by Croner I Ltd. This falls under the category of service procurement, specifically membership organisation services, and involves a direct procurement method below the competition threshold. The awarded contract is valued at £50,400 excluding VAT and spans from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2029. It is applicable to the legal basis under UKPGA 2023/54 and is situated in London, UK. This procurement process has reached the 'Award' stage, with the award being made active as of 3 July 2026.

This contract presents opportunities primarily for businesses involved in providing professional information services, particularly those that specialise in creating or managing content-rich online platforms. The targeted suppliers for such contracts are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Croner I Ltd that can deliver specialised digital solutions to meet specific organisational needs. Businesses that can offer robust online platforms or services should find similar tender opportunities within governmental departments rewarding, as they can provide steady and predictable revenue streams while establishing long-term partnerships with government entities.
