## Summary

The Gambling Commission, based in Birmingham, has completed a direct award tender for consultancy services under the title "4NL069 Transition Plan SMR". This contract, valued at £615,873, focuses on IT and business services, and aims to provide continued support during the implementation phase of the 4NL Programme. The procurement process is classified under the CPV scheme for IT services including consulting, software development, Internet support, and business services such as law and marketing. The tender utilised the NEPRO 3 framework for continuity of support. Located in the West Midlands, the contract started on 1st July 2025 and is set to end on 28th February 2027, with the award being active since 26th June 2025.

This tender is particularly advantageous for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), providing a key opportunity to participate in substantial public sector consultancy services. Businesses specialised in IT consulting, software development, and business services such as marketing and legal consultancy will find this tender appealing due to its strategic importance in supporting the Gambling Commission's programmes. The direct award nature might favour organisations with established pathways or prior engagement with NEPRO frameworks, but it offers growth potential by expanding service portfolios within government contracts.
