Summary of the contracting process

First Choice Homes Oldham bought a managed cyber security service combining 365 CrowdStrike Falcon Complete licences with 560 Identity Protection Complete licences. The requirement covers endpoint protection and identity protection for the organisation’s users and systems, delivered as a cybersecurity service rather than a one-off equipment purchase. The buyer is a housing provider based in Oldham. The work is for delivery in the North West of England. The procurement is categorised as IT services, including software and support. One lot covered the requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. First Choice Homes Oldham awarded the contract to Saepio Solutions Limited. The contract was signed on 6 July 2026 and runs from 7 July 2026 to 14 June 2027. Its gross value is £80,809.80. The published procurement information identifies the route as a below-threshold process, but does not give a more specific procedure. The requirement was handled as a single lot. No award criteria or supplier eligibility conditions are set out in the available procurement details.

This award demonstrates a specific requirement from First Choice Homes Oldham for managed endpoint and identity protection across hundreds of licences. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement from this buyer would need to provide the CrowdStrike Falcon Complete and Identity Protection Complete services, or a credible equivalent meeting the buyer’s security needs, together with the capability to deploy and support them as a managed service. The awarded supplier was a large business, showing that the delivery scale was suited to an established provider, although the contract itself was below the relevant threshold. Experience implementing endpoint security and identity protection for an organisation of this size, and the operational capacity to maintain both services, would be commercially relevant.
