Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council bought renewal, support and maintenance for its Tenable Security Centre vulnerability management platform. The platform gives the council a central view of cyber security vulnerabilities across its on-premises infrastructure, cloud environments, network devices, servers, endpoints and applications. It supports continuous monitoring, risk-based remediation, management and compliance reporting, audit evidence and security-posture dashboards. The contract covers software licensing, technical support and maintenance, vendor vulnerability intelligence, plugin, signature and security-content updates, product enhancements and software upgrades. This is security software and associated support for protecting the council’s business-critical systems, services and information assets from cyber threats. Delivery is in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to INSIGHT DIRECT (UK) LTD. Derbyshire County Council signed the contract on 8 October 2026. The contract runs from 2 December 2026 to 1 December 2027. Its value is £39,343.71 excluding VAT, or £47,212.45 including VAT. The requirement was procured as a below-threshold purchase; the procedure type is recorded as unknown. There was one lot, covering the platform renewal, support and maintenance. The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement information does not state a separate award date or evaluation criteria.

This award shows demand from Derbyshire County Council for an established vulnerability-management platform backed by licensing, vendor intelligence, technical support and ongoing maintenance. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to keep Tenable Security Centre supported and current, including timely plugin, signature and security-content updates, product enhancements and upgrades. Credibility also depends on supporting continuous monitoring and risk-based remediation across a mixed technology estate, including cloud and on-premises infrastructure, servers, endpoints, network devices and applications. Suppliers should be able to support security teams with vulnerability analysis and reporting that informs remediation, compliance, audit and cyber-risk governance. The buyer’s requirement is a focused software renewal and support service rather than a broad cybersecurity transformation programme.
