The requirement covers the provision of Microsoft enterprise subscriptions for the agency. It is a services contract managed by DVLA, whose operational address is in Swansea, Wales. Delivery is associated with Swansea and Wales, United Kingdom. The procurement concerns software licensing and subscription provision rather than software development, construction or physical goods. Suppliers with expertise in supplying and administering Microsoft enterprise subscription arrangements are the relevant market. The agreement supports DVLA’s ongoing access to Microsoft products and related subscription services across its operations, requiring a provider able to manage a substantial public-sector software subscription requirement. The procurement is complete and was awarded on 18 August 2026 to PHOENIX SOFTWARE LIMITED. The award value is £17,615,114. The estimated procurement range was £14,864,714.22 to £17,615,114. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The tender deadline was 15 June 2026 at 12:00. DVLA used a selective procedure and made a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically the Government Commercial Agency Framework. The award is active and the selected supplier is a large organisation. The published outcome records a completed award rather than an opportunity for new submissions. The procurement was categorised as services and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates substantial, recurring demand from DVLA for Microsoft enterprise subscription services delivered through a public-sector framework route. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need strong Microsoft licensing and subscription expertise, the operational capacity to support a large-scale, multi-year agreement, and experience serving a public-sector agency. It would also need to understand framework call-off procedures and the commercial and compliance disciplines involved in government technology procurement. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that competitors should be able to manage significant volumes, provide reliable subscription administration and account support, and maintain continuity across the full service period. This is a focused opportunity for established enterprise software and licensing specialists. ## Notice Award of contract has been completed via Government Commercial Agency Framework. Award notice published for transparency. Contract is for the provision of a Microsoft Enterprise Subscription Agreement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7ec084cd-41cf-45e5-86a6-c2f7d6587519 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Sep 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Aug 2026 | | Contract period | 1 Oct 2026 - 30 Sep 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £17,615,114 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £17,615,114 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency | | Locality | SWANSEA | | Postcode area | Swansea | | Postcode | SA6 7JL | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL4 Mid and South West Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL43 Swansea | | Local authority | Swansea | | Electoral ward | Mynydd-bach | | Westminster constituency | Swansea West | | Delivery location | TLL Wales | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | Phoenix Software | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72260000 - Software-related services ## Release History - 8 Sep 2026 at 14:20 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7ec084cd-41cf-45e5-86a6-c2f7d6587519 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7ec084cd-41cf-45e5-86a6-c2f7d6587519 8th September 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c2e7174d-a23a-4977-9d54-3aeb1c943ef6 n/a ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
