Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited requires an additional test environment for Oracle Fusion Cloud Service to support its HR Helpdesk implementation project. The environment is intended to provide a dedicated space for the implementation and support appropriate project management and governance. The purchase is an uplift to National Highways’ existing Oracle agreement, rather than a separately described wider IT service. It covers information technology services, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The requirement is focused on access to the additional Oracle cloud environment for the project; no other goods, works or service components are described.

The procurement has been awarded to Oracle, and the contract is active. The recorded contract value is £27,634,133.92. The contract was signed on 7 November 2024 and its stated period runs from 30 September 2026 to 25 August 2027. The additional environment is described as being required for 12 months. The purchase is an uplift to an existing agreement; no separate procedure, submission route or evaluation basis is stated. The procurement is presented as one lot. The contract amendment describes a change in value to cover the additional Oracle Fusion Cloud Service test environment for the HR Helpdesk implementation.

For suppliers assessing similar future requirements from National Highways, this award indicates demand for a dedicated Oracle Fusion Cloud Service test environment to support an HR system implementation. A credible competitor would need to provide or support that specific Oracle cloud service, and demonstrate that its environment can be used to manage implementation activity with appropriate project governance. The requirement is narrowly tied to enabling the HR Helpdesk project, rather than a general IT support or infrastructure contract. The buyer used an uplift to its existing Oracle agreement for this need, so suppliers should be positioned to address a defined additional environment requirement within an established enterprise cloud arrangement.
