## Summary

The "Graduate Development Services Phase 3" contract, valued at £4,856,760, has been awarded by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) located in Leeds, England. The procurement was conducted through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, and the contract period spans from 22nd May 2016 to 23rd May 2018. This tender is classified under "Technical computer support services" (CPV code 72611000). While the award notice was published for transparency on 13th February 2018, the contract has already been completed.

This award presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in technical computer support services, especially those with the capacity to fulfil large government contracts. While the contract is not suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger firms capable of delivering comprehensive development services would be particularly well-positioned to compete for similar future tenders within the public sector.
