## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has awarded a contract for IBM 3rd Party Software Support to Origina UK Limited. This contract, valued at £10,960,000, falls under the Software package and information systems category (CPV code 48000000) and will span from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2028, with a possible extension of 12 months. The tender was conducted via a selective method through a call-off competition under the CCS G-Cloud 13 Framework Agreement (RM1557.13). The procurement stage is at the award phase, with significant dates including the tender period ending on 16 October 2024 and the award notice published on 5 December 2024. The services are to be delivered across various regions including the United Kingdom, Europe, and other global locations.

This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for businesses within the software support and IT services industry. Although this contract is awarded to a large company, it showcases a substantial market demand for robust software support services that could inspire other similar opportunities. Businesses specialising in independent software support, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality services on an international scale, would be well-suited to compete in future tenders of this nature. Additionally, the framework agreement method used here highlights a pathway for qualified suppliers to participate in government procurement processes effectively.
