## Summary

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence in the United Kingdom engaging PA Consulting Services Limited to provide DevSecOps support to the BMfS programme. This contract, which falls under the industry category of Technical Support Services (CPV code 71356300), was awarded on 16th October 2025 and is scheduled to end on 19th December 2025. The procurement was conducted using a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender supports the transition and handover of DevSecOps services to a new provider, alongside continuing support as new resources are onboarded. The process is now in the Award stage, following the completion of the tender period which ended on 30th September 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses in the technical support services sector. Given its selective procurement method that leverages a framework agreement, companies with existing framework relationships can capitalize on such opportunities. The Ministry of Defence's contract requires continuing support and effective management of service transition, which favours businesses that can demonstrate expertise in complex project delivery and change management. While the project is not specifically suited for VCSEs, it encourages participation from SMEs, highlighting an attractive opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises looking to expand their footprint in government contracts related to defence and technical support services.
