Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office procured the Data Product Family, focused on information technology services covering consulting, software development, internet services and support. The requirement was structured as an extension with uplift to an existing data product family arrangement. The buying organisation is the Home Office, based in London. The recorded service classification places this in the broad IT services market rather than in a goods or construction supply chain. Businesses operating across data products, software engineering, digital platforms, technical consulting, internet services or ongoing IT support would be the most relevant potential competitors for this type of Home Office requirement.

The procurement has reached the award stage. It used a tender process under the legal framework of Directive 2014/24/EU and comprised one lot. The contract was signed on 28 July 2022 and runs to 28 July 2027. The recorded contract value is £81,000,000. The active award is to Kainos Software Limited. The lot was described as an extension with uplift, and the contract amendment records unexpected requirements and associated costs arising from scope elements that were not apparent at the outset. This indicates that the awarded arrangement covers an expanded or enhanced requirement within the Home Office’s Data Product Family.

This procurement is relevant to established IT suppliers able to combine data product delivery with software development, technical consulting, internet services and operational support. The requirement demonstrates demand from the Home Office for a substantial, multi-year data-focused technology arrangement rather than a small standalone implementation. A credible future competitor would need the delivery capacity, engineering capability and service-management maturity to support a broad product family and respond to evolving requirements. The recorded amendment also indicates that suppliers should be able to absorb or manage changes in scope, identify emerging technical needs and control associated costs. The selected supplier’s classification as a large organisation provides a benchmark for the scale and organisational resilience expected.
