## Summary

The National Archives commissioned accessibility auditing services for a new accessible framework for Lawmaker. The work is a professional review of accessibility, intended to assess whether the framework meets relevant accessibility requirements. It falls within auditing services and is classified under CPV 79212000. Delivery is in Richmond, England. The buying organisation is The National Archives, based in Richmond. This is a services requirement rather than goods or construction work, and is relevant to suppliers providing accessibility audits, assurance reviews or related compliance assessment for digital or framework-based public services. The requirement is specifically concerned with auditing a new accessible framework for Lawmaker, so firms with experience evaluating accessibility in comparable public-sector or digital environments are likely to be the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 28 July 2026 to Caci Limited. The award value is £12,960. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 31 January 2027. It was conducted as a selective procedure and was a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than a standalone open competition. The tender submission deadline was 28 July 2026 at 5pm. The contract covers one services requirement and the published procurement value matches the awarded value. The award is active, with Caci Limited named as the selected supplier. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the appointed supplier is recorded as a large organisation.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist accessibility auditing by The National Archives, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to show practical capability in auditing accessibility and assessing a new accessible framework for Lawmaker, with evidence that findings can be translated into clear assurance or compliance recommendations. The procurement was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist practices may be competitive where they can demonstrate relevant technical expertise, dependable delivery and public-sector understanding. Experience of accessibility review work at a similar, focused scale would help establish credibility when this buyer next requires comparable assurance services.
