## Summary

Ofcom procured Microsoft licensing and Azure storage under its Microsoft Enterprise Agreement. The requirement covers software and associated services, including licensing, products and cloud storage, with provision allowing for growth in these areas over the contract’s life. It is classified as software packages and information systems (CPV 48000000) and falls within the services category. Delivery is for Ofcom in London. The procurement was conducted for Ofcom, the UK communications regulator, whose office is at Riverside House, Southwark Bridge Road, London. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the awarded supplier is a large business.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. Ofcom selected Phoenix Software Ltd through a selective call-off from the Crown Commercial Service RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 framework, Lot 3 for software and associated services. The tender submission deadline was 14 January 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the award was made on 14 August 2026. The awarded value is £11,014,141, with the same value stated for the overall procurement. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. Phoenix Software Ltd is the sole recorded awardee. The published information identifies the framework call-off route, but does not set out separate award criteria or weightings.

This award demonstrates substantial, recurring demand from Ofcom for Microsoft enterprise licensing, Azure storage, related products and associated software services. Suppliers seeking to compete for a future requirement would need strong capability in Microsoft enterprise agreements, licence management, Azure storage and the supply or support of related technology products. Experience of serving a regulated public-sector organisation would help establish credibility, alongside the operational capacity to manage a sizeable, multi-year technology account and accommodate growth in licensing, products and storage. Familiarity with Crown Commercial Service framework call-offs, particularly the Technology Products & Associated Services 2 route and its software and associated services scope, would also be important. The requirement is presented as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, creating scope for capable smaller specialists as well as larger providers.
