Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Camden bought Cloudflare Enterprise Services to protect the council’s public-facing websites, applications and digital services. The requirement covers web application firewall (WAF) and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection, guarding against malicious traffic, common web application attacks, denial-of-service attacks and other internet-based threats. This is a cybersecurity service centred on protecting internet-facing digital services, rather than general IT support or software development. The stated delivery addresses span multiple UK regions, while the services being protected are Camden’s public-facing digital platforms.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Ultima Business Solution Ltd. The contract is active and was signed on 31 August 2026, at a value of £238,504.78. The process used a limited procedure through an existing framework agreement, with a mini-competition among relevant framework suppliers and evaluation against criteria established in advance. Price was the stated award criterion. The requirement was arranged as one lot covering Cloudflare WAF and DDoS protection. One bid was recorded for that lot. The lot is marked cancelled in the tender information, although an active award and contract are reported for it.

For suppliers competing when Camden next buys this requirement, the relevant capability is enterprise-grade protection for public-facing websites, applications and digital services, particularly web application firewall and DDoS mitigation. Credibility will depend on demonstrating effective defence against malicious internet traffic, common application attacks and denial-of-service threats, while supporting the council’s internet-facing security architecture. This purchase was made through a framework mini-competition, so a supplier’s access to the relevant framework and ability to compete under its terms are commercially important. The recorded outcome shows a focused cybersecurity service requirement rather than a broad digital transformation programme; suppliers whose offer is centred on this protection and who can evidence delivery for public-facing services are the closest fit.
