UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Connected Places Catapult is seeking a strategic technology change and delivery partner. The requirement covers flexible business analysis, project management and delivery execution to support technology-led business change. It is a services procurement, classified under software programming and consultancy services (CPV 72200000). The buyer is Connected Places Catapult, a public undertaking based at 1 Sekforde Street, London. The appointed partner would provide a flexible combination of strategic advice, analysis, project management and practical delivery capability, rather than a single software product or defined works package. This opportunity is therefore aimed at organisations that can combine technology consultancy with structured change delivery and project execution across changing business needs.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single-lot contract, evaluated entirely on quality, weighted at 100%. Offers were due by 24 September 2026 at 12:00. The award decision was scheduled for 26 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract period is 1 November 2026 to 1 December 2027, with a maximum extent to 1 November 2028. The buyer reserved three 12-month extension options. The published gross estimated value is £0, while the lot value is recorded as AED 0. Electronic submission is allowed, and tenders may be submitted in English. Full tender documentation is available through the buyer’s tendering portal.

This opportunity suits technology consultancies and delivery partners with established business analysis, project management and technology change capabilities. Strong candidates will be able to translate strategic technology needs into workable programmes, analyse business requirements, manage projects and execute delivery, while flexing their support to meet changing priorities. The quality-only evaluation means the buyer is focused on the strength, relevance and credibility of the proposed service rather than a separately weighted price assessment. Suppliers should be comfortable providing an integrated team that can advise at strategic level and also take responsibility for practical implementation. It is relevant to organisations experienced in delivering technology-enabled business change through structured governance, planning and hands-on execution.
