UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has recently completed the procurement process for the project titled "Probation Digital Services Platform Design, Build and Transition" in the UK. The procurement was conducted under the selective method, specifically using an award under framework, and falls within the services industry category, notably IT services such as consulting, software development, internet, and support. The contract's value is set at £25,000,000 with a gross amount of £30,000,000, and the legal basis is outlined under UKPGA 2023/54. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with the award issued on 21st July 2026. The contract is scheduled to commence on 3rd August 2026 and can potentially be extended for an additional 12 months beyond the initial three-year term ending on 2nd August 2029.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT consultancy and software development, particularly those capable of handling large-scale digital transformation projects. Firms like small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in the digital services sector are well-positioned to benefit, given the substantial contract values involved. The contract awarded to Tecknuovo, a London-based SME, suggests a promising environment for businesses aiming to expand their footprint in delivering essential government digital services, especially within the domain of justice-related digital infrastructure enhancements.
