## Summary

The procurement process entitled "IRIS C19 re-factoring" was conducted by the Department for Work and Pensions, aiming to enhance the Integrated Risk and Intelligence Services (IRIS) platform in response to increased demand stemming from COVID-19. This opportunistic tender, classified under the industry category of Information Technology Services (CPV Code: 72222300), had a contract value of £249,190 and was awarded using a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 31 July 2020, while the contract commenced on 3 August 2020 and is scheduled to end on 30 November 2020. The work was carried out in London, United Kingdom.

This contract presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly those specialising in IT services and software development, to engage in government projects. With the ongoing impact of COVID-19 necessitating flexible technological solutions, businesses that can offer innovative refactoring, system enhancements, or risk management services would be well-positioned to compete for future projects similar to this. The capacity to swiftly adapt and deliver robust IT solutions will be crucial for firms looking to secure contracts with public sector organisations like the Department for Work and Pensions.
