UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of London Corporation procured a security awareness service, titled Redflags Security Awareness. The requirement is classified as a security service and is for the Corporation’s use. Think Cyber Security Ltd, trading as Redflags, was selected to provide the service. The procurement is recorded as a single lot. The available description identifies the service by name but does not set out its specific activities or intended users, so the requirement can be matched most clearly by suppliers working in security awareness services. The buying organisation is the Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Corporation used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Think Cyber Security Ltd trading as Redflags received the award. The contract was signed on 22 September 2026 and runs from 25 September 2026 to 24 September 2027. Its gross value is £44,168.48. The procurement has one lot, and the award covers the security awareness service. No evaluation basis or selection criteria are recorded. The outcome shows that the Corporation engaged a supplier directly for this requirement, rather than conducting a competitive tender.

For suppliers considering similar work for the City of London Corporation in future, this award demonstrates demand for a defined security awareness service, rather than a broader security contract. A credible competitor would need to show relevant capability in delivering security awareness services and explain how its offer meets the Corporation’s requirement. The selected provider operates as a security company, giving businesses with comparable specialist expertise a useful benchmark for the type of supplier chosen. The procurement was made by direct award without competition, so the outcome does not establish a competitive scoring model or particular accreditations, staffing levels or technical standards. Suppliers should focus on demonstrating relevant service experience and a clear fit with this buyer’s security awareness needs.
